Robida is a situated, multilingual cultural magazine published by Robida collective. Each issue explores a topic connected and generated by Topolò/Topolove, the village on the border between Italy and Slovenia where the collective is based.
The chosen topic is thrown into the world and interpreted by people who have never been to Topolò. What people send back after the open call is not only a contribution to the exploration of a defined theme but also a new interpretational tool to explore the collective’s relation to Topolò.
The tenth issue of Robida magazine, which celebrated its tenth year of existence, is made of correspondences, conversations, interviews and letter exchanges where the magazine becomes the pretext to establish new relationships or deepen existing ones. While writing and other creative activities can often be solitary endeavours, this year, Robida’s core purpose was decidedly tangible and hands-on: to go out there and talk, discuss, meet, write to each other, organise and create — together.
The issue contains correspondences about, among other things, fire, bread, dreams, wild tongues, public space, local architecture, community gardens, reading practices, sky, bees, postcards, type design, resistance, be-longings, regenerative agriculture, coding, radical equality and more.
