(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.

Black-clad with an ominous aura created by their distorted guitar epics, burnt-out ballads and raucous mantric jams.
A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!
Sonic ‘observations’ of the world, through micro recordings on a tiny scale and transformed into something musically compelling.
A workshop inviting participants to enact a series of scores that explore witnessing, testimony, grief and mourning, facilitated by Mezna and Sadia, and accompanied by Sakina Ali.
Jandek’s first ever live performance. Unannounced, the performance was a total surprise for everybody at the festival.
