Pixelache travel guide part 2: Random City is part of a collection of selected audio works for Pixelache Festival 2021.
Alëna Korolëva’s travelogue “grazes across sonic neighborhoods that might resemble Tbilisi, Batumi, Toronto, Havana, St. Petersburg, Ulyanovsk, Strasbourg, Marseille, Naples, Reggio Calabria, Lisbon and Barcelona.” It’s based on field recordings made in public spaces of different cities in 2018–20. Random City appealed especially to Andrew who’s missing traveling more than I do.

Ferment Radio – I wish I had superpowers to see microbes & Fermenting our way out of trouble (conversations with Maya Hey)
Ferment Radio is a podcast series on bacterial and social fermentation.
During Pixelache Festival Radio, Ferment Radio is thrilled to present a conversation with Maya Hey; a two-part episode which originally aired at the end of 2020.
Maya Hey is a scholar and PhD candidate at Concordia University doing research on fermentation and feminist theory. From chemistry labs to culinary kitchens, organic farms, and food markets, her work is a constant search to answer questions around embodied knowledge, collective ethics, and interspecies thriving.
In this conversation, we discuss the bigger picture of fermentation: fermentation as a selfless practice, and the impossibility of understanding the microbial part of ourselves. We also reflect on the impossibility of controlling something that is inseparable from us, fermentation as a feminist practice, and the cultural appropriation of food recipes.
Host: Aga Pokrywka
Guest: Maya Hey
Produced by Super Eclectic
Supported by Culture of Cultures, a Research project studying the social aspects of human-microbe relations.

Mariana Salgado - Diseño y diáspora (Podcast)

Mariana Salgado – Diseño y diáspora ep. 194 Arturo Escobar
Este es un episodio de Diseño y diáspora podcast, donde Mariana Salgado entrevista a Arturo Escobar, un antropólogo colombiano que hace mucho tiempo viene inspirando y guiando el trabajo de diseñadores. Él sabe cómo explicar procesos complejos de una manera que lo hace parecer simple y ofrece una visión para transformar los mundos. Según Arturo el diseño tiene que ver con la construcción de los mundos y pensar qué es la vida, y eso lo hizo acercarse a la disciplina. También encontró en la relación que tiene el diseño con la creación una manera de entender la lucha política y el activismo. Él trabaja con grupos de origen africano en Colombia y feminismo negro. Y nos recuerda la importancia de “pensar con quién pensamos y desde donde pensamos. Si pensamos con los movimientos sociales, no solo con los libros, ya estamos haciendo una intervención”. Y nos propone que podemos anticipar, para que las cosas que van emergiendo, se vayan conectando las unas con las otras para que vayan surgiendo rizomas, redes autoorganizadas y que surjan alternativas radicales, viables y creíbles.
This is a program in Spanish.

a spark in a barn, in the body, in an oppressing society - selected audio works
2021-08-31 23:00, 2021-08-31 17:00 - 18:00, 2021-08-31 11:00 - 12:00, 2021-08-31 05:00 - 06:00
a spark in a barn, in the body, in an oppressing society is a collection of selected audio works for Pixelache Festival 2021, curated by festival co-director Laura Gustafsson:
This playlist is about how bodies resonate with the environment – sometimes creating disharmony and destruction. Bengisu Uykusu’s work processes the conflicted feelings one easily develops towards people and things that one has grown up with. She writes that her loneliness, desire, and fury are peering around the edges of her piece. (This is one of those that made me laugh, in an uneasy way, though).
Maximilian Latva’s work is nostalgic to those of us who remember the Helsinki Makasiinit, a sort of center for underground culture before people were evicted from there and the place was burnt (it felt like a sacrifice, somehow). The piece also addresses the theme of burnout and what the city surroundings might feel like for a traumatized individual.
In Ola Zielińska’s sonic report individuals join their force and rise against the oppressor. Poland’s government has failed its female citizens – along with LGBTQI people and many others (so many, that in fact together they are the majority) – who now begin to create their own communities and bonds. Witnessing in resonance is a powerful testimony about fear, rage, and solidarity.
caitlin davis fisher, a former professional footballer, also strikes the patriarchal society in her beautifully intense spoken word piece (I assume a good game must feel exactly like that if you’re into it).
— Laura Gustafsson, Pixelache co-director
List of works:
Bengisu Uykusu: My Own Greenhouse 5:59
Maximilian Latva: Makasiini palaa 6:47
Ola Zielińska: Witnessing in resonance. Sonic report on disobedience. 29:32

The show features an interview with David Goren and a radio piece called “Irradiant Waves Over New York City” which takes us on a journey through the pirate brooklyn airwaves.

reverse, return, regenerate - selected audio works

reverse, return, regenerate is a collection of selected audio works for Pixelache Festival 2021, curated by festival co-director Laura Gustafsson:
I will not pretend to understand how the hyperspectral images of soil in Anne Yoncha’s project Re:Peat are actually converted into sound. There are two sonified soil samples, from Latvasuo and Pikkusaarisuo peat extraction sites, the unrestored soil sample is panned left, and panned right is the restored (one that’s been de-acidified with the ashes of burnt peat). The podcast on reverse-engineering proves that resilience can be built by learning how things work, repairing the broken, and applying the remains – maybe for an unfixed means. Both Fahmi Mursyid and Amelia Marzec use found or salvaged technology to create their sounds and instruments. Mursyid’s piece is the kind of ghastly, yet beautiful, soundscape that reminds me of why I first got fascinated with sound art. Marzec’s strange harmony feels like a calming ritual, a farewell to the era of disposable electronics.
— Laura Gustafsson, Pixelache co-director
