Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

The recording is from April 16, 2025 at 16:27 and was made at the Parco della Pescaia, a small park located in the south-west area of the city of Perugia, Umbria, Italy. The Park occupies an area characterised by the presence of a system of basins for collecting spring water from the area as well as water from the Pescaia ditch which ran alongside the current park, and which were used both for irrigation purposes and for fish farming. This park bears witness to an ancient time when the soundscape was profoundly different, with a high acoustic definition. Today the park is completely surrounded by roads, buildings and concrete. What you hear is the fragile balance between two acoustic ecosystems. Recorded by Nicola Fumo Frattegiani.

Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

"The field recording from Perugia, Italy instantly reminded me of long summer days lying in the grass looking at clouds. I decided to keep as much of the piece in as possible just fading in and out as the tones ebbed and flowed. "I wanted to create something that captured that summer nostalgia feeling, but as with all my music, there's always a tone of longing—a slight ache, a feeling of grief. I guess it's the grief of not being a kid anymore, of not being free to just laze in the grass. But also, maybe it's a reminder that we just need to lie in the grass and listen to the distant noises a bit more." Countryside soundscape in Perugia, Italy reimagined by Trees Can Talk (Rebecca Vaughan).

Chi ha detto che “maschio” fa rima con violenza, rigidità e silenzio emotivo? Perché gli uomini compiono oltre il 90% dei crimini violenti, ma si tolgono la vita tre volte più delle donne? E soprattutto: come possiamo riscrivere questa storia, come giornalisti e come lettori? Se ne è parlato alla seconda edizione dei Valigia Blu Live al Festival Internazionale del Giornalismo di Perugia con Francesca Cavallo, scrittrice e coautrice del bestseller internazionale Storie della buonanotte per bambine ribelli, che torna in libreria con Storie spaziali per maschi del futuro, nuove fiabe che esplorano nuovi modelli di maschilità. Con lei Roberta Giuili, giornalista di Sky TG24, autrice nel 2024 del documentario sulla violenza di genere Ritratto Familiare (regia di Tommaso Frangini, produzione di Roberta Colombo Gualandri), e  Pasquale Quaranta, primo Diversity Editor d'Italia e pioniere del giornalismo inclusivo.

Mario Capello"Ospiti"Bompiani Editorewww.bompiani.itMarco e Lara si incontrano sotto la luce soffusa di un ristorante di Stoccolma mentre fuori avanza la lunga notte nordica. Lui è nato a Torino, è cresciuto in Puglia e ora vive in Svezia. La sua esistenza è fatta di domande più che di risposte. Disincantato e introspettivo, scrive poesie, nutre una singolare passione per le apocalissi e si occupa di importazione di vini italiani. Quella che da fuori potrebbe sembrare una confortevole vita da expat risulta a lui stesso neutra, indecisa, scomoda. Anche Lara è un'italiana trapiantata in Svezia: ha lasciato qualche anno prima il suo lavoro da programmatrice a Perugia e crea app in una tech company in rapida espansione. Ha un figlio, Oscar, un bambino acuto e solitario che cresce da sola. Lara è brava nel suo lavoro: da poco ha messo a punto un'app per gli incontri, ed è proprio grazie a quella che conosce Marco. Marco e Lara hanno una cosa in comune: entrambi fuggono da un Paese e da una realtà con cui non riescono a scendere a patti. Da questo incontro nascerà un amore senza per sempre, senza promesse, forse impossibile: un'ansia indefinita li consuma, la stessa che li ha condotti lontano, che li spinge sempre oltre, che muta il loro quotidiano in una routine che non li appaga, dentro una città che ha fama di essere accogliente ed equa ma comincia a mostrare sorprendenti moti razzisti e la capacità di isolare chi non si conforma. Una città di lunghe ore blu, con cieli tersi e gelidi, strade innevate, teorie di alberi, un senso di eterno crepuscolo che comincia a gettare ombre sul mondo del futuro.Mario Capello è uno scrittore e traduttore italiano. Dopo la laurea e il biennio della Scuola Holden, ha iniziato a lavorare in campo editoriale. Il suo primo romanzo, I fuochi dell'86, è del 2009. In seguito ha alternato l'attività di traduttore, principalmente per titoli editi da Einaudi, e di autore.

Il centrosinistra vince a Genova e Ravenna al primo turno. Taranto e Matera vanno al ballottaggio. Genova torna al centrosinistra. Silvia Salis agguanta la vittoria al primo turno e diventa sindaco. La stessa cosa avviene a Ravenna con Alessandro Barattoni. Taranto e Matera vanno al ballottaggio, dove comunque i progressisti sono avanti. Per le amministrative, centoventisei comuni al voto, due milioni di elettori hanno eletto nuovi sindaci e consigli comunali. Non c'è stato un crollo dell'affluenza che rimane stabile l'affluenza, al 56,3%. Il metodo Salis. Il risultato premia il metodo utilizzato da Silvia Salis durante la campagna elettorale. Ha messo da parte le polemiche, le divisioni, e ha scelto la strada del dialogo con i partiti, con le associazioni del volontariato laico e cattolico, ed è riuscita a ricompattare la coalizione dopo gli anni di Bucci ora Presidente della Regione Liguria. Si tratta della stessa intuizione che ha portato il centrosinistra, in particolare candidate donne, a riprendersi nei mesi scorsi l'Umbria e Perugia, a vincere a Firenze e in molte altre città. I dati delle amministrative dimostrano che quando il centrosinistra è unito e ha candidati credibili si afferma con maggiore convinzione. Ora il tema vero è come trasferire questa pratica a livello nazionale. E' vero che storicamente il maggioritario a doppio turno che prevede i ballottaggi favorisce il centrosinistra, ma è altrettanto confermato che a fare la differenza è un buon candidato che riesce ad unire, non dividere. Questo risultato è più facile ottenerlo in sede locale, nei territori, nel buon governo. I vari leader dell'opposizione nazionale dovrebbero mettere da parte l'individualismo, il protagonismo, il settarismo, la politica del particolare, e adottare invece la lezione genovese. Il metodo Salis. "Il Corsivo" a cura di Daniele Biacchessi non è un editoriale, ma un approfondimento sui fatti di maggiore interesse che i quotidiani spesso non raccontano. Un servizio in punta di penna che analizza con un occhio esperto quell'angolo nascosto delle notizie di politica, economia e cronaca. ___________________________________________________ Ascolta altre produzioni di Giornale Radio sul sito: https://www.giornaleradio.fm oppure scarica la nostra App gratuita: iOS - App Store - https://apple.co/2uW01yA Android - Google Play - http://bit.ly/2vCjiW3 Resta connesso e segui i canali social di Giornale Radio: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/giornaleradio.fm/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/giornale_radio_fm/?hl=it

Il 23 maggio è una delle date più belle della storia del Milan. Nel 1968 i rossoneri hanno conquistato la Coppa delle Coppe contro l'Amburgo. Il 23 maggio 1987 i rossoneri vincono lo spareggio con la Sampdoria per partecipare alla Coppa UEFA. Il gol della vittoria era stato di Daniele Massaro, nato il 23 maggio 1961. Nel 1990 invece il 23 maggio è il giorno della vittoria della Coppa Campioni contro il Benfica. Nove anni più tardi arriva la gioia dello scudetto vinto a Perugia, nel pomeriggio delle leggendarie esultanze di Adriano Galliani. Il 23 maggio 2007 ecco la Champions League vinta contro il Liverpool, con Atene che arriva dopo Istanbul e porta la Settima in dote alla bacheca rossonera. Il destino del calcio ci ha messo del suo aiutando il Milan a raggiungere un traguardo importante anche il 23 maggio del 2021, il ritorno in Champions League.

Quali sono le conseguenze quando la legalità internazionale diventa un'opzione anziché un principio vincolante? L'Europa, intanto, è costretta a ripensare sicurezza e difesa, mentre l'allontanamento degli Stati Uniti dalle alleanze transatlantiche impone una maggiore autonomia strategica.In questo incontro, Paola Caridi, esperta di Medio Oriente, Francesca Mannocchi, giornalista che ha raccontato i conflitti sul campo, Nello Scavo, reporter d'inchiesta di Avvenire, Emanuele Cimiotta professore di Diritto Internazionale  presso l'Università di Perugia e Giulio Fedele, analista delle dinamiche giuridiche globali, hanno parlato di come il diritto internazionale stia vacillando sotto la pressione delle guerre e delle nuove alleanze geopolitiche.

With years of expertise designing cycling and adventure tours across all 20 regions of Italy, Beppe and Heather have the inside scoop on the most authentic and unforgettable experiences Italy has to offer.So grab your espresso (or a glass of vino Italiano), and let's explore Italy region by region!Northern Italy: Adventure, Culture, and Alpine BeautyLombardy (Lombardia)Running along the Swiss border, Lombardy is Italy's largest and wealthiest region—a land of striking contrasts and cultural riches. Home to nearly 10 million people, Lombardy contains 12 of Italy's largest cities: Milan, Bergamo, Brescia, Como, Mantua, Pavia, Cremona, Lecco, Lodi, Monza, Sondrio, and Varese. The region blends modern sophistication with old-world charm, from the fashion capital and bustling metropolis of Milan to the serene, postcard-perfect landscapes of Lake Como.Lombardy is dotted with some of Italy's most beloved lakes, including Lake Maggiore, Lake Como, Lake Garda, Lake Iseo, Lake Idro, and many more. Picturesque villages like Bellagio offer sun-drenched escapes along Lake Como's shores, while the medieval towns of Bergamo and Mantova enchant visitors with cobblestone streets, sweeping views, and centuries of history.Culinary lovers will be spoiled for choice with Lombardy's 60 Michelin-starred restaurants—3 with three stars, 6 with two stars, and 51 with one star. Be sure to savor the region's iconic Risotto alla Milanese, a creamy saffron-infused dish that's a local staple. Wine enthusiasts won't want to miss a glass of Franciacorta, Italy's sparkling answer to Champagne.November is a wonderful time to visit, with cooler temperatures and fewer tourists. It's also the perfect season to explore Lombardy's slice of the Alps, where charming mountain towns await nestled among the peaks. For an unforgettable adventure, consider attending the 2025 Winter Olympics, which will be held in Milan-Cortina d'Ampezzo!Tourissimo Tip– If you are flying into Milan, select the correct airport because Milan has two airports! For info, check out the following Tourissimo blog: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/avoid-this-common-travel-mistake-know-milans-two-airportsVenetoVeneto, the birthplace of Prosecco, Polenta, and the iconic Spritz, is a region rich in charm, culture, and culinary delights. Stretching from the Italian Riviera to the Venetian Pre-Alps and the stunning Dolomites, Veneto is home to both natural beauty and historic towns. Its capital, the enchanting floating city of Venice, is world-famous for its canals, gondolas, labyrinthine streets, and undeniable romance.Each of Venice's islands offers something special: admire the colorful houses of Burano, renowned for its lace-making traditions; visit Murano, celebrated for its centuries-old glassblowing artistry; and soak up the peaceful atmosphere of Torcello. Exploring these islands by vaporetto (water bus) offers a quieter, more authentic glimpse into Venetian life. Tourissimo Tip–For a few more suggestions, check out Tourissimo's blog on the Venetian Lagoon: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/our-favorite-destinations-in-the-venetian-lagoonBeyond Venice, Veneto boasts a treasure trove of picturesque towns. Verona, Padua, Vicenza, and Asolo each offer their own distinct history and beauty. Visit Castelfranco Veneto for a charming escape or head to Bardolino to enjoy a boat ride on Italy's largest lake, Lago di Garda. Stroll the waterfront in Castelletto sul Garda or circle the freshwater moat of Cittadella, a red-brick medieval town full of character.In the countryside, the hills of Prosecco promise stunning vineyard views, while the medieval town of Montagnana offers a taste of the past. Nature lovers can visit the volcanic Euganean Hills in Este, and cheese lovers shouldn't miss the small town of Asiago, home to one of Italy's most famous cheeses.Veneto's culinary scene shines with 34 Michelin-starred restaurants—2 with three stars, 3 with two stars, and 29 with one star. Indulge in local specialties like Bigoli in Salsa, a hearty Venetian pasta with anchovy sauce, and toast with a glass of Prosecco, Grappa, or the regional favorite, the Select Spritz. And don't forget—Venetians love to celebrate, so let loose and join the party!Tourissimo Tips–Another fun suggestion is Veneto Marostica, the City of Chess, where they do a living chess match with hundreds of people dressed in medieval costumes every two years: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/marostica-the-city-of-chessPiedmont (Piemonte)Nestled at the foot of the Alps and bordered on three sides by the Mediterranean Sea, Piedmont is one of Italy's most underrated gems. With a diverse landscape that offers adventure and beauty year-round, this region is perfect for both winter skiing and summer hiking and biking, thanks to its stunning Alpine scenery.But Piedmont isn't just about breathtaking views—it's steeped in rich history and cultural significance. As the first capital of Italy, it boasts grand palaces, remarkable art, and sacred relics like the famed Shroud of Turin. The capital city of Turin is a vibrant hub, home to Europe's largest outdoor food market and the monthly Gran Balon flea market, a haven for vintage and antique lovers.Venture beyond the city and you'll discover a region bursting with charm and flavor. Tour the Langhe Hills, a paradise for vineyard visits, and sample Bagna Cauda, a warm anchovy and garlic dip beloved by locals. Wander the lakeside town of Stresa on Lake Maggiore, or stroll the cobbled streets of Neive, where views of rolling hills and storybook cottages create an unforgettable setting. In Asti, you can witness the September medieval horse races and visit the majestic Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e San Gottardo.

Simona Segoloni Ruta"Madri"Edizioni Messaggero Padovawww.edizionimessaggero.itL'esperienza delle madri ci tocca tutti, perché ci conduce all'origine della nostra esistenza ed evoca sentimenti e valori profondi. Eppure è difficile trovare una realtà tanto falsificata da stereotipi e luoghi comuni, per non parlare di vere e proprie devianze, quanto la maternità. Restituire l'esperienza dell'essere madri alle donne che partoriscono e/o crescono qualcuno/a, dare voce ai loro corpi e imparare il loro linguaggio, è l'unica via perché la maternità si liberi da ciò che la mistifica e si dischiuda a significati capaci di raccontarci l'umano, la chiesa, il mondo e Dio, grembo e nutrice di ogni vita.Simona Segoloni Ruta, vive a Perugia con il marito e i 4 figli ed è professoressa full time di ecclesiologia all'Istituto teologico Giovanni Paolo II di Roma.

Nature lovers and photographers alike will be amazed by its dramatic 165-meter drop.

See some photos and learn more here: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/letizia-battaglia-groundbreaking-photojournalist-who-fearlessly-documented-the-mafia-in-her-native-sicilySardiniaSardinia, the second-largest island in the Mediterranean after Sicily, is a rugged, rural paradise known for its natural beauty, deep-rooted traditions, and ancient history. The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community. For outdoor enthusiasts, inland Sardinia offers some of the best biking and hiking experiences in all of Italy.Tourissimo Tip–What is a Blue Zone? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/blue-zoneThe island's coastlines are just as enticing. Costa Smeralda is often described as paradise on earth, with stunning beaches like Spiaggia di Tuerredda, Cala Goloritzé, and Spiaggia di Porto Giunco perfect for sunbathing and swimming. Don't miss the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park (Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena), a protected area with crystal-clear waters and pristine landscapes.Charming towns such as Alghero, Bosa, and Cagliari add to the island's appeal. Many of Sardinia's towns are nestled in the mountains located in the island's center, offering a peaceful and scenic escape.Cultural and historical attractions abound. Must-see sites include the Nora Archaeological Park, Bastione di Saint Remy, Parco Archeologico Naturalistico di Santa Cristina, and the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Cagliari. For an unforgettable natural wonder, venture into the Frecce delle grotte srl and Neptune's Grotto, stunning sea caves accessible by boat or stairs carved into cliffs.Sardinia is also home to a unique ancient civilization. Scattered across the island are over 7,000 nuraghe—megalithic stone structures built during the Nuragic Age (c. 1900–730 BC). These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.

Registrata presso il Centro Evangelico Battista di Perugia il 30 Marzo 2025.Titolo del messaggio: "Due modi in cui la bontà di Dio dovrebbe motivare le tue buone opere"Tito 2 V1 - 3 V112:1 Ma tu esponi le cose che sono conformi alla sana dottrina: 2 i vecchi siano sobri, dignitosi, assennati, sani nella fede, nell'amore, nella pazienza; 3 anche le donne anziane abbiano un comportamento conforme a santità, non siano maldicenti né dedite a molto vino, siano maestre del bene, 4 per incoraggiare le giovani ad amare i mariti, ad amare i figli, 5 a essere sagge, caste, diligenti nei lavori domestici, buone, sottomesse ai loro mariti, perché la parola di Dio non sia disprezzata. 6 Esorta ugualmente i giovani a essere saggi, 7 presentando te stesso in ogni cosa come esempio di opere buone; mostrando nell'insegnamento integrità, dignità, 8 linguaggio sano, irreprensibile, perché l'avversario resti confuso, non avendo nulla di male da dire contro di noi. 9 Esorta i servi a essere sottomessi ai loro padroni, a compiacerli in ogni cosa, a non contraddirli, 10 a non derubarli, ma a mostrare sempre lealtà perfetta, per onorare in ogni cosa la dottrina di Dio, nostro Salvatore.11 Infatti la grazia di Dio, salvifica per tutti gli uomini, si è manifestata, 12 e ci insegna a rinunciare all'empietà e alle passioni mondane, per vivere in questo mondo moderatamente, giustamente e in modo santo, 13 aspettando la beata speranza e l'apparizione della gloria del nostro grande Dio e Salvatore, Cristo Gesù. 14 Egli ha dato se stesso per noi per riscattarci da ogni iniquità e purificarsi un popolo che gli appartenga, zelante nelle opere buone. 15 Parla di queste cose, esorta e riprendi con piena autorità. Nessuno ti disprezzi. 3:1 Ricorda loro che siano sottomessi ai magistrati e alle autorità, che siano ubbidienti, pronti a fare ogni opera buona, 2 che non dicano male di nessuno, che non siano litigiosi, che siano miti, mostrando grande gentilezza verso tutti gli uomini. 3 Perché anche noi un tempo eravamo insensati, ribelli, traviati, schiavi di ogni sorta di passioni e di piaceri, vivendo nella cattiveria e nell'invidia, odiosi e odiandoci a vicenda. 4 Ma quando la bontà di Dio, nostro Salvatore, e il suo amore per gli uomini sono stati manifestati, 5 egli ci ha salvati non per opere giuste da noi compiute, ma per la sua misericordia, mediante il lavacro della rigenerazione e del rinnovamento dello Spirito Santo, 6 che egli ha sparso abbondantemente su di noi per mezzo di Cristo Gesù, nostro Salvatore, 7 affinché, giustificati dalla sua grazia, diventassimo, in speranza, eredi della vita eterna. 8 Certa è quest'affermazione, e voglio che tu insista con forza su queste cose, perché quelli che hanno creduto in Dio abbiano cura di dedicarsi a opere buone. Queste cose sono buone e utili agli uomini. 9 Ma quanto alle questioni stolte, alle genealogie, alle contese e alle dispute intorno alla legge, evitale, perché sono inutili e vane. 10 Ammonisci l'uomo settario una volta e anche due; poi evitalo; 11 sapendo che un tal uomo è traviato e pecca, condannandosi da sé.

Amanda knows about living inside other people’s preconceptions. When she was 22 years old, she was sentenced to 26 years in prison for a murder she didn’t commit. In 2007, on a study-abroad program in Perugia, Italy, Amanda’s roommate Meredith Kurcher was raped and murdered. The police and the tabloids pinned it on “Foxy Knoxy,” calling Amanda a sex-crazed murderer. After spending almost a decade in the labyrinth of the Italian criminal justice system, Amanda was fully exonerated. Today, she lives in her hometown of Seattle and, with her husband, has a podcast called Labyrinths about the mazes we find ourselves in.

“If you go to buy a beautiful men's suit from a famous brand, you can go to Tokyo, New York, London or in Rome, and it would be the same because it's a brand, okay? So why do you travel?

COJ #107 - Amanda Knox On Trauma, True Crime Storytelling and Ethical Reporting

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell sit down with Amanda Knox to talk about true crime, journalism, media ethics and finding clarity in a world where facts aren't enough to persuade someone of the truth. In 2007, Seattle resident Amanda Knox was a 20-year-old studying abroad in Perugia, Italy, when the worst happened: A man broke into the apartment she shared with three other women and brutally raped and murdered her roommate: British student Meredith Kercher. The town's unscrupulous police agency immediately — and wrongly — put all their energy into making Amanda into a suspect no matter how many times the evidence told them otherwise. To make matters worse, they colluded with a tabloid reporter to paint Amanda out to be a “femme fatale” and fed the reporter made-up stories about what happened the night of Meredith's murder. And the public was only too happy to take part in the resulting frenzy that was almost entirely born out of these men's sexual fantasies about Amanda. Though she's since been acquitted on appeal and completely exonerated by Italy's high court, Amanda continues to grapple with backlash from those who have trouble accepting her innocence. But her focus isn't on them. It's on finding clarity amid the chaos and the injustice. Amanda, who is now a journalist, hosts the “Labyrinths” podcast with her husband, author and poet Chris Robinson. She is a mom of two, an author and an advocate for the wrongfully accused. Her latest book, “Free: My Search for Meaning” is available for pre-sale and will be released in March 2025. Her book Waiting To Be Heard, a NYT best seller, tells the full story of her harrowing ordeal in Italy—a labyrinthine nightmare of crime and punishment, innocence and vindication—and of the unwavering support of family and friends who tirelessly worked to help her win her freedom. Between 2007 and 2015, she spent nearly four years in an Italian prison and eight years on trial for a murder she didn't commit. She has since become an advocate for criminal justice reform and media ethics. She sits on the advisory council for the Frederick Douglass Project for Justice and serves as an Innocence Network Ambassador.
