 After the newscast we take a look at weekend sports results and then at Monday's Spanish dailies.  Then, in North By Southwest Nicolas Jackson visits Madrid cultural centre La Casa Encendida to hear about a cross-discipline exhibition programme which includes both visual arts and film. There we meet exhibitions coordinator Yara Sonseca as well as Andy Davies, curator of a cycle of films by Scottish artist Luke Fowler.  We also speak to the artist himself.  The broadcast ends with the music of gypsy guitar master Sabicas, perhaps flamenco's most international artist.  Pamplona, in the northern region of Navarre, is hardly associated with Flamenco, the music and dance that originated in Andalusia.  And yet, Pamplona is hosting its first flamenco festival--called, "Flamenco on Fire"--in honor of one of the city's most illustrious sons, Sabicas, born Agustín Castellón Campos in Pamplona in 1912.  The festival's multi-lingual website can be visited at:  http://www.flamencoonfire.org/en/ .
