The five students who started the whole idea received some help from some of their lecturers and thus created the cozy studio on the last floor of the building.</p> <p>     The founders of the radio gathered different people around the initiative and soon radio “Reaction” started to work. In 2011 the founders graduated and left the radio to other students, who continue to develop it nowadays. That legacy is of great importance because the students who work in radio “Reaction” now will pass the project to the younger students.   </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Birthday_performance" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44266/birthday_performance.jpg"></p> <p>      </p> <p>      The creation of radio “Reaction” was an answer against the policy of Sofia University according to which the first students’ radio “Alma Mater” no longer needed students to actually function. This is how radio “Reaction” became a rebellion against mainstream media. Now the radio is one of the two working students’ media in the Faculty of Journalism and Mass Communication and one of the most well-spread online radios in Bulgaria. “Reaction” provides a place where young journalists can practice as well as  supports the freedom of speech with all means – it was one of the main sources of information during the anti-ACTA national protests and the protests in support of the preservation the natural heritage.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="First_broadcast_on_air" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44267/first_broadcast_on_air.jpg">  </p> <p> <img alt="Radio_reaction_against_nuclear_energy_expansion" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44268/radio_reaction_against_nuclear_energy_expansion.jpg"></p> <p>    </p> <p>     We made a lot of partnerships during these 3 years of existence – we are working with many organizations, young artists, music and art festivals etc. We need your help to maintain the legacy of radio “Reaction” and let our future colleagues continue to actively support important cаuses like the freedom of speech and independent journalism.   </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Centrofuga_radio_show_on_air" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44269/Centrofuga_radio_show_on_air.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>   </p> <p> <img alt="First_birthday_performance" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44271/first_birthday_performance.jpg">  </p> <p> <img alt="Friday_chopsticks_show_memebers" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44272/Friday_chopsticks_show_memebers.jpg"><img alt="First_broadcasting_live_" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44273/first_broadcasting_live_.jpg"><img alt="Live_guitar_performance_in_the_studio" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44274/live_guitar_performance_in_the_studio.jpg"></p> <p> <img alt="On_nails_radio_show_crew" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44275/On_nails_radio_show_crew.jpg"><img alt="Part_of_the_members_at_2nd_birthday_party" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/44276/part_of_the_members_at_2nd_birthday_party.jpg"></p> <p> <strong><u>THE CREW: </u></strong> The crew of radio “Reaction” consists of talented young people, who work as a team.
