description
Silently we turned on the radios, one by one, until a transparent tapestry covered the corner of the square. We moved in and out of this spectrum of interferences. From time to time someone took a radio and relocated it, reorganizing the situation and the resonance of the city down there. Thus, in and out of this circle, the night quietly fell, we turned off the radios and walked downhill.
