| Resumo: | This work aims to introduce the archive of shellac discs from the Radio in Goa (All India Radio) by exploring the recorded performative practices found in the collection and acknowledging their absences. I argue that analyzing the current archive of All India Radio in Goa provides insights into social and historical mechanisms linked to identification, conscientization, and migration processes. The analysis will focus on the performative practice of cantaram and examine its aesthetic, ethical, social, and political dimensions, along with a selected group of artists associated with this practice. |
