În scris pari mai puternică / In writing you seem stronger

We chatted with Svetlana Cârstean in a café and we fought with the voices around us. Because she has a voice as delicate as her stature, but much stronger in writing. As she was told at the launch of the first volume of poems, Floarea de Menghină [The Vice Flower], Cartea Românească Publishing, 2008. From journalism, journal writing, poetry, to the hosting of the Wednesday Intersections talks, Svetlana Cârstean has changed many voices and continues to change them. * Diana Voinea works as a copywriter. Since two years she walks with a recorder in her bag and records the sounds of the city. About all she recorded in a year she has used on an ambient field recording album. She listens to a few podcasts and is up to one. Her interest is in the memory of voices and in stories created with sounds.
