abstract = "A renaissance occurred from the late 1960s in the art of documentary and {\textquoteleft}feature{\textquoteright} production in radio, especially from within the major public broadcasters of Europe. Surprisingly, the pioneering work of this little commented-upon groups of accomplished artisans finds its most immediate parallels not in radio but film culture, particularly in the auteur, nouvelle vague and cin{\'e}ma-v{\'e}rit{\'e} movements of the time. The new acoustic documentary-feature {\textquoteleft}project{\textquoteright} suggests a radio {\textquoteleft}new wave{\textquoteright}: a new art of {\textquoteleft}wild sound{\textquoteright} recording freed from script and studio, and make possible by the advent of portable recorders, microphones and a strong infusion of 1968 zeitgeist.",
