About Liber | Sound project
Liber | Sound is a project that proposes the liberation of musical heritage enclosed in obsolete sound recording media (78 rpm records, magnetic tapes, cassettes) to facilitate the reactivation of memory through innovative archiving processes. It focuses on examples of micro-expressions of popular music recorded and disseminated by the recording industry during the first half of the 20th century in Portugal, Mozambique, Brazil and India (Goa), spaces that share common political histories and languages with obvious repercussions on musical transits and experiences.
