RTV Theory and Practice - Special Issue

way we thought that programme assessment should not only be a matter for editorial boards, editorial councils, radio councils, but that assessment shouid be carried out on a wider front by a larger number of people. Is that socialisation? We аге not sure. АИ we know is that we are making some attempts at socialisation. STANISLAW GORZKOVICZ (Radio Wrociaw Poland): The probiems which have been aired here are important for ali those who work in radio broadcasting aii over the world. Radio broadcasting has 50 уеагз’ experience behind it. This radio experience has not been covered by radio theory. There is a gap between theory and practice. Those who evolve the theory have not followed the practice. To bridge that gap we shouid certainly try to introduce some iectures on the aesthetics of radio into schools, in the same way as the puphs Seam about painting and other branches of art and the arts. The opportunities of radio broadcasting lie in sounđ, in contrast to teievision where the picture is more important. A TV writer presents us with a picture of a hero, a situation; in radio it is quite the opposite case; as many as there аге listeners, there аге interpretations. In this sense radio is closer to literature than teievision or the cinema. ■ I have foilowed with great interest the remarks on the specific nature of radio in Yugoslavia. I feel that one of the speciflc features of Yugoslav radio broadcastlng is that you broadcast in many languages and uphold different Yugoslav cuitures but nonetheless if one can isolate one cominon feature, regardiess of ianguage or specific culture, then that would be the building up of socialism... We must speak of theory, we must open up horizons. That is why I consider that this discussion we are holding today is directed towards opening up new horizons. No one else wUI do it if not we ourselves... In Poland there аге already two institutes concerneđ with radio... MIROLJUB JEVTOVIĆ: It is dear that the further development of radio broadcasting must be the object of serious research so that we can discovef factors essentiai to improve broadcasting in practice, The fact that we have emphasisedcertain questions means that we are on the track of the answers and the more talented programme-makers through their works can be signposts leading to an general improvement of radio
