The group Terzo Radio GAP was founded in October 1969 in Genoa, the capital of the Partisan resistance against the German occupation during World War II. The name "Gruppi d'Azione Partigiana" (GAP) refers to the history of the partisans and at the same time uses a modern medium of communication: television. Radio GAP brought the information directly to the people, in their living rooms. After the news, during the commercials, they disturbed the sound of the program with their statements, broadcasting audio signals from their car. The propaganda strategy they chose resembled an artistic action, a communication guerrilla, as in the Situationist movement that was operating in Paris at the same time.
