Expanded Radio Research Unit is an independent radio program dedicated to sound experimentation and the exploration of radio as an artistic and cultural space. The program moves between music, spoken word, performance, and hybrid sonic practices, questioning the very boundaries of radio as a medium and offering a reflection on sound as a tool for imagination, connection, and transformation.

Expanded Radio Research Unit considers radio as an acoustic and social ecosystem: a space where cultures, aesthetics, and transmission practices meet. Each episode becomes a listening laboratory where sound is at the center of a research process that spans geographical territories, artistic languages, and symbolic dimensions.

The aim is to create bridges between different spaces and contexts, connecting voices, stories, and sonic forms that challenge the conventions of traditional radio communication. In this perspective, radio becomes a performative and communal medium, capable of activating imaginary soundscapes and giving voice to artistic practices that are often marginal or non-codified.

Expanded Radio Research Unit is therefore not just a program to listen to, but an experience to immerse in: an acoustic-curatorial proposal that invites the listener to rediscover radio as a critical and sensitive space.

Conceived and curated by Katatonic Silentio, Expanded Radio Research Unit is a monthly meeting at Imbarchino Del Valentino and is streamed on RBL Torino.

Stenny’s second album on Ilian Tape is an exploration of disintegration as a structural principle. Each track operates as a unit — fractured, self-contained — yet part of a wider language that resists linear cohesion. The work bears the imprint of spatial, psychological, and material disruptions — not as narrative, but as structural interference.
Tension is treated as a condition to work with, a material in itself, a zone where form is continually destabilized, but never fully dismantled.

ITLP23 STENNY - SHARP FRAGMENTS

“First, a sensationless void. “Something’s missing… but what?”

She drifted in brilliance and liquid time—wherever she looked, she saw gelatinous infinity. Light refracted light refracting farther than her eyes could see. Trying to speak, her voice broke into symbols, shards of glass spilling through her teeth..

"ᜉᜇ̢ᜅ᜔ ᜈᜃᜆᜒᜃᜒᜋ᜔ ᜈ ᜃᜓ ᜅ᜔ ᜃᜎᜌᜀᜈ᜔ ..!"

Centuries pass in flickers, suspending time into sago. Identity dissolves completely. Without meaning to, she has become the thing she once carried, minus the electric razor.

3061. A memory tickles her ear: “Sure, longing is painful, but it might be the only thing you can control.” A thousand lives blink at once. “Lounging mice swim freely when full." Pleasure, grief, terror, joy—erupting through her, prickling her skin. “Lo mein, kain na.”

Far off, a glistening hall of mirrors, within mirrors—and at its center, a familiar figure.
She lifts a hand. It answers.”

Operating out of Toronto, Trailcam crafts dense music shaped by fractured percussion and dub's dislocation. Her approach to sound evokes a world that's constantly shifting with its clean edges eroded by repetition and drift. Released on Northern Electronics, her debut album Drumlin Loop serves as a weathered map of these sonic territories.
