Abstract

The article recovers the memory of the production, results and context of the first network research carried out by the Intercom Radio Work Group, in 1998, which also resulted in the publication of their first collective book. The analysis of the radio theater play The War of the Worlds, directed by Orson Welles and broadcasted by the CBS network in the United States, carried out by the GT on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the show that caused panic among listeners, marked a qualitative leap in the GT's life, which started to operate also in a network based on collectively defined scientific objectives.
