#SONORIDADESCojan auriculares porque este número de Dramática, además de leerse, se escucha. En este mundo cada vez más ruidoso, asistimos a la necesidad de concentrarnos en lo que oímos buscando un cierto aislamiento, quizas habitar un parentesis, quizas encontrar un eco intrauterino de cuando llegamos a la vida y el oido fue el primer sentido que desarrollamos y por el que empezamos a llenar de experiencia y conocimiento nuestro almacen de memorias. Dedicamos a lo sonoro esta revista impulsadas por la sensacion de que cada vez tiene mayor peso y presencia la sonoridad en los montajes teatrales, porque los artistas sonoros cada vez coquetean mas con lo escenico, porque la musica escondida en el cine o en los clubes alberga secretos culturales que apelan a lo social, a lo politico, a lo filosofico y hasta a lo antropologico, porque la ficcion sonora vive un momento dulce en la era dorada del podcasting.Porque ademas queremos poner en valor todas las sonoridades posibles, preteritas, presentes y futuras, para lo teatral y lo parateatral, reivindicando aquellos olvidos injustos en los ambitos formativos o en los lugares donde se da carta de legitimidad a los artistas, a base de premios o de dineros. Para que deje de sonarnos a extraterrestre lo que suena y los que nos suenan que hacen que todo suene. ¿Te suena?
