Guy Picciotto + Spirodon mix for Radio Alhara راديو الحارة

For the fourth episode of Kitchen Broadcast, we had lunch with Bojana Cvejic and Yazan Khalil and took the time to talk and exchange ideas about the infrastructural conditions and ways of hosting, (under)commoning and insituting otherwise, starting from both their practices in setting up different spaces and places.

Bojana Cvejić is on of the co-founders, together with Jan Ritsema and still an active member of PAF (Performing Arts Platform)a residency in a small villange St Erme in France close to the Belgian border. She is also, among many other things, active in TkH (Walking Theory platform) an independent, institutionally non-aligned, extra-academic platform for performing theoretical-artistic activism.

Yazan Khalili engaged in the transformation of Khalil Sakakini Cultural Center in between 2015 and 2019 in Ramallah, Palestine, and continued his reflections on processes of instituting through different projects, among many other things, the QAF or the Question of Funding and Aka, a space hosting a decentralized network of self-organizing and grassroots collectives in Kassel.

Kitchen Broadcast is an ongoing online conversation that proposes to listen to different voices, different rhythms and different sounds, reflecting on present situations that intersect in Brussels, composed by Joachim Ben Yakoub and Reem Shilleh. 

It is produced with the kind support of Kaaitheater, a stage for dance, theater, performance, music and debate in Brussels.

On ways of hosting, (under)commoning and insituting otherwise,

“Containing Multitudes, At Times Fragmented” is a personal, political, academic, poetic text in the format of a zine or small publication. This project seeks to focus on different methods of ‘embodied writing’ - an intersection between dance practices and writing styles. In this audio excerpt, I am exploring voicing and vocalizing the silent practice of writing towards creating a different experience in reading and listening. Some of my artistic research questions are:
How does writing from a personal and embodied storytelling serve as a tool for activism across different social and political contexts? 
How do writers navigate the balance between artistic expression and advocating for social change in moments of urgency? 
In what ways can literature challenge dominant power structures and how can reading promote and amplify marginalized voices? 
And lastly, how does the digital age impact the landscape of activist writing, including social media activism and online publishing? 


Created during the 2023 summer residency as part of the THIRD Artistic Research program at DAS Graduate School in Amsterdam University of the Arts.

Containing Multitudes, At Times Fragmented - Excerpt

A mix of musical experimentations by artists from around the world who have been supporting the global movement to call for an end to the genocidal actions of the Israeli state in Gaza. Also this mix includes some classics of revolutionaries who have passed including Victor Jara. This mix is woven with sounds from demonstrations to support Palestine in Mexico City.

For the 11th episode of Time to heal, I'm delighted to welcome Zurich-based sound artist Jamira Estrada. Her sound work blends different textures allowing an intimate approach to her universe. With softness she invites with ‘Striving for Light’, through a journey of poetical gestures, that showcase her fascination for electroacoustic music. 

For an hour, you're invited to be transported upwards through a series of landscapes that will allow you to rediscover yourself.

WHAT’S GOING ON #51

"first half recorded live at a garage party celebrating 420 eve, in that early & freeing empty prologue to an event, with the second adding more favourites in the 100bpm range, give or take a few paces, pieced together on a spring ride across the city. my first set since FSR hit pause. the selections highlight mainly TO and Mtl artists presenting swells and swaths, beats direct and broken, voices and varied instrumentation. a soundtrack for this drawn out end to the cold months, whether in the background, on a walk, or that opening slot no one wants. the second in a series which, a surprise to me, started in spring 2020. third to follow soon. enjoy!" - mh
