This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep

It focuses specifically on the expose by Buster Friendly of Mercer as a fraud and Mercerism as a "swindle", as well as how and why "nothing changes" as a result of this revelation.

Beki Powell and Katie Ox shred the epic Zenski party as their duo Birds in Paradise at Mode Miami

Birds in Paradise at Zenski - Mode Miami 2025

Brought together by their mutual love for music and birds, this eccentric duo has been performing together at clubs and festivals since 2019.

They met at the legendary Electric Pickle, where Beki was a resident DJ and Katie was a frequenter of the dance floor (at this time Katie only Dj’d for her teddy bears). They became instant best friends, and Beki soon took on the role of  “DJ Fairy Godmother”, encouraging Katie to get out of her shell and play in public after years of practicing at home.

Needless to say, it went well, and Beki invited Katie to join the all-women DJ collective she was a part of called The Fates. After the collective dissolved, Katie and Beki continued to work together. This feathery duo is now known for activating dancefloors all over Miami with their funky music & loyal flock.

Inspired by their mutual love of birds, Katie and Beki launched their radio show Birds in Paradise last spring, which airs every first Thursday of the month on Jolt Radio.

Avant-garde house music between lofi- and minimal / deep house, techno, glitch and electronica, plunderphonics and house, the Westend Ghetto Guys somehow occupy a niche of their own and live from strange glitches and bizarre sounds. Bootleg remixes and mashups for 'iamamiwhoami' also lead to an official remix ("N") and collaborations with other musicians (e.g. 3PM, Minute Taker, Christopher Norman, Klordop / Tis, Morgen Wurde) from the Swedish pioneers of viral video chips. Not surprisingly, the collective from the Westend Ghetto even published sample libraries for the renowned magazine "Computer Music" and for the 'sounds2sample'-Platform and offers highly acclaimed "ensembles" in the Reaktor community ("Native Instruments").
