“a dialogue between two rooms“

“Interstice is a performance happening in two acts, in two rooms, that started from the artists’ shared concerns about surveillance technology and its agency over bodies. From within a shared listening state, vibrations cut in at irregular intervals, distant sounds claim their space, as they reveal the massive presence of a nearby collapsing entity. What seems noise becomes progressively visible through visuals, nourished by live camera feeds and tracking systems registering movements. As these signals accumulate, the boundaries between the two environments begin to blur. Does what you experience belong to here, or there?
”
“Interstice: a dialogue between two rooms is the result of a 6-month co-creation project guided by sound artist Max Frimout. During this project, the collective explored the possibilities of faulty machinery - technology that glitches, fails and breaks apart and questioned whether encounters with the virtual liberate bodies or instead render them silenced and erased.

the arrest scene
a collaboration with m7di
arrested during a protest for palestine in amsterdam
i read a text aloud
on how children enter the world of adults
gradually
and then all at once
i am based in amsterdam,
while my family and friends in Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan and across the swana region hear missiles and bombs dropping
the dissonance remains
a collectively shaped environment
