The fifth festival “Muzika erdvėje” event is a live radio broadcast on “Radio Vilnius”. Another location visited by Čiurlionis was Didžioji st. 20/22, where the famous portrait photo of Čiurlionis was taken in the Photo Atelier of Stanisław Filibert Fleury. Currently, a real estate company is operating in this location.

During the broadcast artistic directors Marta Finkelštein and Agnė Matulevičiūtė will have a discussion with researchers, interpreters, and fans of M. K. Čiurlionis, talking about him from different and surprising perspectives. Special attention will be dedicated to the Lithuanian Culture Institute magazine “As a Journal”, which, following the vision of Edvardas Šumila, revealed a new modern Čiurlionis based on the perspectives of researchers and artists.

Throughout the broadcast, “Muzika erdvėje” special guest's and artist's Goda Palekaitė’s writings will take on a new musical form.

A cycle of four visual poems “Hallucinating Čiurlionis” was written at the invitation of Edvardas Šumila, a curator for this issue of the magazine “As a Journal”. These poems are a speculative Čiurlionis’ stream of consciousness which reveal some aspects of his chaotic inner world: his synaesthetic way of thinking, intuitive, allusive, and exhausting nature of his work, his dreams about the Lithuanian identity and acknowledgement, and his love for Sofija.

The poems are created in the form of scattered letters, written using a typewriter, and the words become another example of Čiurlionis’ artistic might. These poems, written by Goda Palekaitė, will be read in three languages live on the broadcast by Gert van Berckelaer.
