“Trees without roots” is a monthly radio program, lasting 471 meters, which will take place within the defined perimeter: 471m around no. 17 A of Rua de Cabo Verde. We will rarely cross this border! The duration of each program will depend on the length of a physical and imagined route, defined in advance, carried out in the company of one or more guests. Along the way, we’ll talk about the construction of the contemporary landscape and the relationship between our collective imagination and the places we inhabit, how we transform these places and how the places transform us.
