Activism Beyond The Interface an itinerant production lab
by Alessandra Renzi and Roberta Buiani
During this lab activists and artists are invited to produce a radio programme about an ecology of different forms of activist practices. The second part of the event will involve guests and the audience in a radio show, to discuss in more detail the contexts and situations that can engender new modes of relation among groups, the sharing of values, the co-creation of specific tools (e.g. media, forms of collaboration, tactics, etc.) to understand and learn from the work of others.
We understand the production of the radio show as work-in-progress striving to create a positive, respectful and safe space where activists and artists support each other in this inquiry. This is the first of a series of labs that will take place in different cities and that will adapt and grow with different situations, to create a useful resource that continuously rethinks and (re)imagines activism. Join us... go+
