Abstract

With more than 90 year-old history, radio has been neglected by media studies. Within mainstream media, radio is not only a blind medium but an invisible medium too in terms of scientific production on communication. This article reflects on the production of knowledge in this area and the challenges of studying a culture of listening in times dominated by the look. The point of view of this approach is based on scientific self-reflexivity and socio-semiotics analysis of radio.
