Club Culture, Electronic Music, Intermedia in Central and Eastern Europe. Creating Spaces of Empowerment and Reistsance with Marina Gržinić, DJ Elizen the Emperor, Ann Mysochka & Habitat Shaking (Bass Resistance) Club culture creates safe spaces for living queer sexuality, fosters multimedia experimentation with music, video art and performance and then and now can be labs for new social ideas. The punk and new wave scene in 1980s Ljubljana was one inspiring example. And to this day, party collectives in Ukraine, Georgia and Eastern Germany dance in resistance against authoritarianism in their respective contexts while maintaining diapora communities abroad. Slovenian video artist and philosopher Marina Gržinić revisits the 1980s Ljubljana scene and foregrounds its relevance today. Berlin based Bass Resistance is a Ukrainian DJ collective „with a mission“, in opposition to the war and oppression. The party Never//Now provides emancipatory subculture for local youths and supports democracy building initiatives in Brandenburg when state funding for such projects is becoming scarcer. Film screening and DJ sets round off the program. -- # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: https://www.nettime.org # contact: [email protected]
