"In 1968, RAI founded the ‘Servizio programmi sperimentali’ [Experimental Programmes Service, that in 1976 became the ‘Settore ricerca e sperimentazioni programme’ -Programmes Research and Experimentations Sector] a sector of the company entirely dedicated to the research and experimentation of television language. It was within this context that artists such as Gianni Toti, Mario Martone and Ugo Gregoretti, among others, created some of their first works."
