  • Bem-Vindos Ao Pod-Drama-Cast E a Uma Nova Experiência De Escuta: a Comunidade Virtual De the Archers Emma Rodero Antón*
    43 Comunicação e Sociedade, vol. 20, 2011, pp. 43-59 Bem-vindos ao pod-drama-cast e a uma nova experiência de escuta: a comunidade virtual de The Archers Emma Rodero Antón* Resumo: As novas tecnologias e especialmente o podcast favorecem a recuperação do género mais criativo do meio radiofónico: o drama, que, por não estar sujeito à actu- alidade, se adapta aos novos modos de produção e recepção de conteúdos na Internet e através do podcast. Surgem, assim, na Internet diversas experiências que, tendo o drama radiofónico como protagonista, estão a contribuir para recuperar o género. Uma experiência significativa, que exemplifica como a rádio convencional se adapta às novas tecnologias, criando uma nova comunidade virtual de ouvintes, é a novela The Archers (BBC), com emissão regular desde 1951. As páginas seguintes compreendem um estudo sobre a adaptação tecnológica realizada por The Archers, analisando os principais recursos empregues, que permitem caracterizar esta nova comunidade virtual de ouvintes. Palavras-chave: drama radiofónico, novas tecnologias, podcast, comunidade virtual, The Archers. 1. Drama radiofónico, uma nova oportunidade tecnológica O drama é um dos géneros mais adequados para o meio rádio, uma vez que a sua essência combina todas as qualidades necessárias. É precisamente este género que ilus- tra mais claramente a característica mais importante da rádio: a capacidade de uma história narrada apenas através do som aumentar a imaginação. «Às vezes argumenta- -se que o estímulo para a imaginação, especialmente a imaginação visual, pertence à rádio, e se pensarmos em termos de “drama” isto é inquestionavelmente certo» (Lewis, 1981: 9). De facto, o tema está bem documentado em diversas áreas de pesquisa (Bolls, * Professora na Universidad Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona ([email protected]).
