The two artists delve into the depths of their individual journeys in a conversation-based performance of Spoken-Word. They share their poetry, their inspirations, their politics and their touch on intersectional feminist perspectives in the arts.

In this episode, Mariam Agamian walks us through the Reading at the Lake (Lesen am See) which took place at Strandbad Tegel on 28th of July 2023.

In this episode, Marta Sala and Cheong Kin Man reflect on their project at Strandbad Tegel, a specially designed umbrella intended for use during the summer. They also discuss their artistic practice involving language and textiles.

With this episode, we will be taken back to the event "Lesen am See" organized by Lynhan Balatbat-Helbock, Hubert Gromny, Kelly Krugman, Mokia Laisin, and Lia Milanesio. Let's immerse ourselves once again in the amazing performance of texts, comments, and the dialogue all at once!

"Imagine a radio that, instead of numbing us to sounds, strengthens our imagination and creativity. Instead of manipulating us into faster work and more buying, it inspires us to invent. Instead of fatiguing us, it refreshes our acoustic sensitivity. Instead of making us ignore thoughts and surroundings, it stimulates listening. Instead of broadcasting the same things again and again, it does not repeat. Instead of silencing us, it encourages us to sing, to speak, and make radio ourselves. Instead of merely broadcasting at us, it lets us listen through it." - R. Murray Schafer

In this episode, musician and sound artist Edoardo Micheli will talk on how ecosystems are inhabited by acoustic communities that are constantly listening to each other, and about the complexity of the resulting soundscape, on decolonial ecologies and the climate crisis. Also on hybrid (human and non-human) communities and some ideas on how to listen to all this.

In this episode you can listen to the part of conversation with Jelena and Bojana Fužinato who shared with us their reflections just after finishing the remake of their work “Kitchen#1” from 2013. This piece is a role-play of performers switching between cooking and reading, intending to reflect on different dimensions and contrasts of feminist perspectives in the present. The conversation also included Endi Tupja artist, filmmaker and storyteller, who was invited by Jelena and Bojana to perform with them “Kitchen#3: unfinished, undone and never ending". The artists shade a light on the process of remaking this very piece but also their own practice in the context of feminist position.
