Undoing radio: resistance with strategies for collective broadcasting and listening
Anabelle Lacroix will focus on the politics of listening and broadcasting at the intersection
with the public. What are the conditions for speaking and sound making within, and beyond
the gallery space? What strategies can address these conditions?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will frame our thinking by considering notions of acoustic justice and free radio that will
be explored through the presentation of the artistic and curatorial project Radio Insomnia.   
Radio Insomnia is an ephemeral radio with live public broadcasts staged in galleries and
social spaces that emphasises night-time listening and sociability, time dilation and intimacy.
Radio Insomnia is a collaboration with artist Nicolas Montgermont.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Desynchronize! Radio Insomnia and the politics of night-time listening and curation
Anabelle Lacroix will present Freedom of Sleep, an exhibition at Fondation Fiminco in 2021,
to explore ideas of desynchrony \u2013 a method for falling out of a dominant rhythm \u2013 such as
the routinised schedule associated with a busy day and its opposite, night-time for passivity,
darkness and privacy; or the temporal norms associated with curating in visual arts
institutions. We will also continue exploring Radio Insomnia with listening sessions of
commissioned artworks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marietta Kesting will present her project Don\u2019t wake up! Future Dreaming in the Arts at the
intersection of Aesthetics, Decolonization, and Media-Technology with a focus on a few
examples of auditory media of the night, including Katharina Schmitt\u2019s radio play \u201cThe
Molyneux Problem\u201d that discusses sonic dream content of people unable to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the short presentations and listening session, a discussion of the politics of night
time listening, deliberate wakefulness and (in)voluntary insomnia with a focus on live arts
making and curation can take place, or any other related topics, participants would like to
explore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
