Hartmut led “a workshop in the old-fashioned way of discussion, mutual exploration of ideas and samples; trying out what can be shared and where the fault lines show.”
Long Stringed Instrument performance involving up to 100 wires strung in tension over a 40m arch.
Nina’s going to talk about November, by Hito Steyerl: what and how the film thinks, or about what and how it might makes us think (which is connected, but not the same thing), by watching, and it discussing (with you?).
The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.
The first of two workshops that highlight correspondence as a way of working. Somewhere between song, speech, and logistical arrangement, these workshops invite participants to consider care as infrastructure.
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.

Andrew Chalk & Christoph Heemann return with their diaphanous, impressionistic drone duo; their slowly evolving and enthralling works flutter and quiver with elegantly restrained, miniature sound events.
Instead of the one-way monologue of normal performance, what would be the result of an actual collective dialogue? Where would it go?
