SUMMARY:Ilk عِلْق - (Per)forming a Queer Arab Muslim Futuristic Vision
DESCRIPTION:Ahmad Baba (Cyclomorphosis)\, is a Berlin-based Lebanese multidisciplinary performer\, a social artist\, and a Master's student in Dance Movement Therapy. With Ilk عِلْق\, Ahmad is investigating queerness from a queer Arab perspective\, tracking the roots of queer lives lived in Arabic and Muslim societies going back centuries. It is an investigation into how queerness has become\, like so many other things\, a form of colonialism\, that is forced on so many identities that don’t necessarily fit under that umbrella\, but find themselves being drawn to it because of the lack of development in their own individual and collective queer existence.  Ilk عِلْق will set out a queer Arab Muslim futuristic vision\, that starts with healing through rewriting histories on one’s own terms and (re)building an identity that has been much misinterpreted and distorted. \nThis performance and discussion event during Oyoun's EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL will be a visual experimental journey\, that shifts between three dimensions (Bab). The audience will have the possibility to cross through different time frames that manifest different approaches to Arab queerness\, from an abandoned past\, through a corrupted present\, and to a euphoric futurism. \n \nAhmad will draw inspiration for the performance elements from manuscripts such as Adab al-jins 'inda al-'Arab (The Erotic Writings of the Arabs) and Nuzhat Al-Albab Fima La Yujad Fi Kitab (A Promenade of the Hearts) by Amazigh poet\, writer\, and anthologist Ahmad Al tifashi (1184-1253 A.D). This should create a bridge over all the erasure that has been applied in modern times\, and increase understanding of how the queer Arab and Muslim identity can emerge by reclaiming times where queerness and homosexuality have been accepted\, tolerated and even studied. \nInspired by the name of the book "A Promenade of the Hearts" - this performance will be a promenade of questioning what we knew\, and what we know\, and what is still to come. \nThe performance screening (produced in collaboration with Mansur Ajang) will be followed by a discussion with the artist around the vision and motivation for the visual performance. \nThis event will be streamed on Oyoun's Vimeo\, YouTube and Facebook channels. Direct links will follow! \n  \nFor the discussion following the performance\, Ahmad will be joined by Fadi Saleh. \nFadi Saleh is a PhD candidate at the Institute of Cultural Anthropology and European Ethnology\, University of Göttingen. His research and teaching focus on queer and trans issues from a transnational perspective\, with a focus on migration\, humanitarianism\, and the politics of representation and knowledge production in/on the Middle East. Outside of academia\, he has worked in different LGBTIQ organizations across the SWANA region and Europe in different training\, consultancy\, adovcacy\, and activist capacities. \n  \n  \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL\nCurators\, artists and cultural practitioners have been exploring identities\, belonging and embodied memories through diasporic\, decolonial and queer perspectives as part of Oyoun’s first curatorial focus: EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES. The outcomes\, encounters and queries which have come out of the projects will be presented and celebrated during the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL from 8th - 18th April. View all events here. \n  \n--- \nAhmad Baba (Cyclomorphosis) ist ein in Berlin lebender libanesischer multidisziplinärer Performer\, sozialer Künstler und Masterstudent in Tanz- und Bewegungstherapie. Mit Ilk عِلْق untersucht Ahmad Queerness aus einer queeren arabischen Perspektive und spürt den Wurzeln des queeren Lebens in arabischen und muslimischen Gesellschaften der letzten Jahrhunderte nach. Ilk عِلْق ist eine Untersuchung darüber\, wie Queerness\, wie so viele andere Dinge auch\, zu einem Aspekt des Kolonialismus geworden ist\, der so vielen Identitäten aufgezwungen wird\, die nicht unbedingt unter diesen Schirm passen\, sich aber aufgrund der fehlenden Entwicklung ihrer eigenen individuellen und kollektiven queeren Existenz zu ihm hingezogen fühlen. Ilk عِلْق wird eine queere arabisch-muslimische Zukunftsvision entwerfen\, die mit der Heilung durch das Neuschreiben der Geschichte zu den eigenen Bedingungen und dem (Wieder-)Aufbau einer Identität beginnt\, die vielfach fehlinterpretiert und verzerrt worden ist. \nDiese Performance- und Diskussionsveranstaltung im Rahmen von Oyouns EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL wird eine visuelle experimentelle Reise durch drei Dimensionen (Bab) sein. Das Publikum wird die Möglichkeit haben\, verschiedene Zeitebenen zu durchqueren\, die unterschiedliche Herangehensweisen an arabische Queerness zeigen - von einer verlassenen Vergangenheit über eine korrumpierte Gegenwart bis hin zu einem euphorischen Futurismus. \nAhmad ließ sich für die Performance-Elemente von Manuskripten wie Adab al-jins 'inda al-'Arab (Die erotischen Schriften der Araber) und Nuzhat Al-Albab Fima La Yujad Fi Kitab (Eine Promenade der Herzen) des amazighischen Dichters\, Schriftstellers und Anthologen Ahmad Al Tifashi (1184-1253 n.Chr.) inspirieren. Indem er auf eine Zeit zurückgreift\, in der Queerness und Homosexualität akzeptiert\, toleriert und sogar studiert wurde\, baut er eine Brücke über all die Rückschläge errichten\, die queere arabische Menschen der Neuzeit erleiden mussten\, und zeigt\, wie eine queere arabische und muslimische Identität beschaffen sein kann. \nIn Anlehnung an den Namen des Buches "Eine Promenade der Herzen" wird diese Performance eine Promenade des Hinterfragens dessen sein\, was wir gewusst haben\, was wir wissen und was noch kommen wird. \nIm Anschluss an das Performance-Screening (produziert in Zusammenarbeit mit Mansur Ajang) findet eine Diskussion mit dem Künstler über die Vision und Motivation für die visuelle Performance statt. \nDiese Veranstaltung wird auf Oyouns Vimeo-\, YouTube- und Facebook-Kanälen gestreamt.  \n  \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL \nKurator*innen\, Künstler*innen und Kulturschaffende haben sich im Rahmen von Oyouns erstem kuratorischen Schwerpunkt - EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES - mit Identitäten\, Zugehörigkeit und verkörperten Erinnerungen aus diasporischen\, dekolonialen und queeren Perspektiven auseinandergesetzt. Die Ergebnisse\, Begegnungen und Fragen\, die sich aus den Projekten ergeben haben\, werden während des EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL vom 8. bis 18. April präsentiert und gefeiert. Siehe alle Events hier.

The selected films look at various kinds of loss held by different bodies - with a focus on storytelling from new voices. Using film\, an embodied memory in itself\, an invitation is made to reflect on the question: can we discover new possibilities in the workings of loss and grief by allowing spaces for these feelings to be held and acknowledged in an embodied way? \nEach film is available for a selected timeframe during Oyoun's EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL.  \nContact us at hallo@oyoun.de to get sent the link and password to view the film.

SUMMARY:Ascension – Intimate Bodies Forbidden Stories
DESCRIPTION:Ascension is a theatre play -  an outcome of a durational project about gender\, femininity and menstruation. The project engaged participants with a community debate in order to reflect on gender equality and social change. The project explored menstruation\, taboos\, and identity from all potential directions such as historical\, political\, embodied\, cultural\, religious\, social\, health\, and artistic concerns. \nParticipants took part in various online workshops dealing with femininity and pain\, which lead us to a final outcome of a theatre play which we will present to you during the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL at Oyoun.  \nThe workshops/rehearsals started in January providing a safe space to communicate femininity\, pain\, therapy\, and collective engagement and discussions with other women. Throughout the project\, the participants had the opportunity to engage with presentations and online conferences/debates about gender issues and taboos. The project aimed at building a community debate around those taboos and forbidden corners of the female body. \nThe play will be followed by a discussion with the director and the participants. We will follow all the emotional\, physical and artistic development throughout the project: from the beginning till end. \nAscension was initiated and led by Dr. Maiada Aboud\, whose work deals with ways that social and religious structures interconnect and influence the individual. She attempts to connect the social-cultural analysis to the individual‘s experience by way of using performance and relating it to cultural and social life.  \nProject participants: Antonia Führ\, Christina Gabriela Galli\, Maria Trinks and Uli Pilwax \n  \nThis event will be streamed on Oyoun's Vimeo\, YouTube and Facebook channels. \n--- \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL\nCurators\, artists and cultural practitioners have been exploring identities\, belonging and embodied memories through diasporic\, decolonial and queer perspectives as part of Oyoun’s first curatorial focus: EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES.

SUMMARY:The Geography of Hate | Performance & Exhibition Walk-Through
DESCRIPTION:Hate is an entity that spreads like a wildfire. An entity that creates "the Other". It becomes the prime lens through which the Other is read and dehumanised. Hate exists as an emotion that brings communities or groups together questioning expressions such as empathy\, love and care. In the collective act of the world making it plays an important role by almost becoming an economy. In its most obtrusive expression\, hate is violent\, working as an apparatus of desolation. \nThe Geography of Hate by Artist-Activist Sujatro Ghosh questions hate as a tool for systematic violence and otherisation. Through collective expressions\, he explores the fundamental anatomy of hate as an entity of subjugation. The project tackles questions such as: ‘How is this Other created and why do certain hate attach to this other and slides over the rest?’ ‘How and why is violence the ultimate materialisation of hate?’ \nThe project's exhibition which includes a showcase of objects\, performance videos\, a documentary\, and an immersive projection work was curated by Arijit Bhattacharyya (Artist\, Curator and Activist) and Sujatro Ghosh. It will be on show in Oyoun's tower from the start of the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL for two months. Information about how to visit in person will be available soon.  \nJoin us online for this event on the 8th. Two performances - by Farah Deen and Karin Cheng and by Fatmanur Sahin and Team - will be streamed from Oyoun's main stage and then there will be a digital walk-through of the exhibition. The walk-through will be led by Sujatro Ghosh. \n\n--- \nThis performance and exhibition walk-through event will be streamed on Oyoun's Vimeo\, YouTube and Facebook channels. Direct links will follow! \n  \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL\nCurators\, artists and cultural practitioners have been exploring identities\, belonging and embodied memories through diasporic\, decolonial and queer perspectives as part of Oyoun’s first curatorial focus: EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES. The outcomes\, encounters and queries will be presented and celebrated during the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL from 8th - 18th April. View all events here.

SUMMARY:Opening Ceremony | Embodied Arts Festival
DESCRIPTION:It is within the intersections of body memory and history that our bodies are potentially at their most revealing. Memories interrupt history and open up another possibility of embodied living\, one that spatialises time and temporalises space. Hence\, treating the body as memory and discussing the role of the body in witnessing authoritarian capitalism\, memorialising the torture carried out by dominant socio-political structures\, thus resisting the narrative erasure reproduced by the imperialism at national and global levels. Oyoun's first curatorial focus EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES offered a community-centered approach as a framework for participants to voice their experiences of ancestry\, rituals\, trauma\, death\, loss\, and finding expression for experiences that are otherwise un-shareable\, and often stigmatised in mainstream public discourses while paving the way for collective healing. \nThe EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL will present and celebrate the outcomes of this body of work. \nJoin us online for the opening ceremony on 8th April to dive deeper into the topics and get introduced to the projects and the people behind them. We'll be kicking off with a meditation led by Nane Kahle\, artist\, healer and practitioner of the ancient Egyptian Kemetic yoga system “Tjef Sema Paut Neteru''. The meditative session brings us inwards\, wakes up our body\, opening up the eleven-day festival\, while generating a spiritual\, psychic and physical connection among all the people who have gathered around in the physical and virtual spaces of Oyoun. \nFollowing the opening ceremony\, the spotlight will be put on Sujatro Ghosh's project: The Geography of Hate. The artists presented by Sujatro explore hate as a tool for systematic violence. The exhibition explores the fundamental anatomy of hate as a creature of subjugation. Two performances - by Farah Deen and Karin Cheng and by Fatmanur Sahin and Team - will be streamed from Oyoun's main stage and then there will be a digital walk-through of the exhibition with Sujatro. \nThe event will be streamed on Oyoun's Vimeo\, YouTube and Facebook channels. \n  \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL\nCurators\, artists and cultural practitioners have been exploring identities\, belonging and embodied memories through diasporic\, decolonial and queer perspectives as part of Oyoun’s first curatorial focus: EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES. The outcomes\, encounters and queries will be presented and celebrated during the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL from 8th - 18th April. View all events here. \n  \n--- \nIn den Überschneidungen von Körpergedächtnis und Geschichte sind unsere Körper potenziell am aufschlussreichsten. Erinnerungen unterbrechen die Geschichte und eröffnen eine andere Möglichkeit des verkörperten Lebens\, eine\, die die Zeit verräumlicht und den Raum verzeitlicht. Daher behandeln wir den Körper als Gedächtnis und diskutieren die Rolle des Körpers als Zeuge des autoritären Kapitalismus\, indem wir die von den dominanten sozio-politischen Strukturen ausgeübte Folter in Erinnerung behalten und uns so der narrativen Auslöschung widersetzen\, die vom Imperialismus auf nationaler und globaler Ebene reproduziert wird. \nOyouns erster kuratorischer Schwerpunkt EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES bot einen community-zentrierten Ansatz als Rahmen für die Teilnehmer\, um ihre Erfahrungen mit Abstammung\, Ritualen\, Trauma\, Tod und Verlust zu artikulieren und einen Ausdruck für Erfahrungen zu finden\, die sonst nicht geteilt werden können und die im öffentlichen Mainstream-Diskurs oft stigmatisiert werden\, obwohl sie den Weg zu kollektiver Heilung bereiten. \n\nDas EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL wird die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit präsentieren und feiern. \nSei online bei der Eröffnung am 8. April dabei und tauche tiefer in die Themen ein - und lerne die Projekte und die Menschen dahinter kennen. Wir fangen mit einer von Nane Kahle geleiteten Meditation an\, die uns alle auf allen Ebenen verbinden wird.  \nNach der allgemeinen Einführung steht das Projekt The Geography of Hate im Fokus. Die von Sujatro Ghosh vorgestellten Künstler*innen beschäftigen sich mit dem Thema Hass als Werkzeug für systematische Gewalt und Othering. Die Ausstellung erforscht die grundlegende Anatomie des Hasses als ein Wesen der Unterwerfung. Zwei Performances - von Farah Deen und Karin Cheng sowie von Fatmanur Sahin und Team - werden von der Hauptbühne des Oyoun gestreamt\, anschließend gibt es einen digitalen Walk-through durch die Ausstellung mit Sujatro. \nDie Veranstaltung wird auf Oyouns Vimeo-\, YouTube- und Facebook-Kanälen gestreamt. \n  \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL \nKurator*innen\, Künstler*innen und Kulturschaffende haben sich im Rahmen von Oyouns erstem kuratorischen Schwerpunkt - EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES - mit Identitäten\, Zugehörigkeit und verkörperten Erinnerungen aus diasporischen\, dekolonialen und queeren Perspektiven auseinandergesetzt.

SUMMARY:a'21: The new liberalism crises and the emergence of mediatised subjectivity_BAAB Collective
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: The new liberalism crises and the emergence of mediatised subjectivity_BAAB Collective \nDuring in the last past decade Sudanese get harm by the US sanctions that affect the whole state and now we are shifting to neoliberal state supporting by US politics and come the question how the new system work and exactly when come to personal information and rights. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nIn previous eras it often appeared that in relation to the media political action was stifled primarily by the fact that people didn't have sufficient access to information or the\nmeans to communicate and express their own views. Indeed today repressive governments attempt to limit access to websites\, close down blogs and Facebook pages\, attack journalists\, and generally block access to information. Countering such repression is certainly an important battle\, and we have repeatedly witnessed how media networks and access to them eventually and inevitably overflow. All such barriers\, thwarting attempts to close and silence.\nToday's mediatised subjects suffer from the opposite problem\, stifled by a surplus of information\, communication\, and expression. "The problem is no longer getting people to express themselves\," Gilles Deleuze explains\, "but providing little gaps of solitude and silence in which they might eventually find something to say. Repressive forces don't stop people from expressing themselves\, but rather\, force them to express themselves. What a relief to have nothing to say\, the right to say nothing\, because only then is there a chance of framing the rare\, and ever rarer\, the thing that might be worth saying." The problem of surplus\, however\, is not really homologous to the problem of lack\, and it is not even a matter of quantity. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo.  \n:: LINKS :: \n► Baab Collective \nInstagram\nYoutube\nFacebook\nTwitter \nParticipants: \n►Rayan Elhadi Elsayed Hima: performance artist @rayisherelol \n►Nour Yahya Hamza Yahya: performance artist @nwara_yahya facebook.com/noor.yahya.319 \n►Bakry Mohamed Salih\nFacebook \n►Elsadig Mohmmed Ahmed\nInstagram \n►Mohamed Salah Elmur\nInstagram \nFacebook \n►Mustafa Elsiddeg Mustafa Gasemlbari\nFacebook\nInstagram\nYoutube \n►Osman \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centring perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more.The project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \nProduced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform\nCuratorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi\nParticipants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more.\nFunded by: Capital Cultural Fund \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de

SUMMARY:a'21: Breaking News_WAF & Deena Abdelwahed
DESCRIPTION:► a'21: Breaking News_WAF & Deena Abdelwahed \nAn audiovisual collaboration and video performance work. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/FR/AR) :: \n\nLet’s think of this work as an object.\nAn object without any (injunction)\nAn object as a (proposition)\nProposition et non pas une injonction.\nDes choses sans sens (avec une part d’insignifiant).\nProposer la chose et laisser libre cours à l’interprétation du sens de la chose.\nUn drôle de truc en tension entre l’insignifiant et donner un sens.\nUne invitation au voyage. Un détour oisif pour se re-trouver.\nThis work is a « flânerie/déambulation » dans les passages entre temps réel and réalité du temps.\nAs this work is under the influence of hazardous shadows on the measures of our dialogue with each other and with the self\, it may still under construction even when you will encounter its first representation as an audio/video combination\, that will be diffused online on a suitable date.\nThis work is for any person that knows already about what we want to say\, and have to say\, rather than just wanting a proof to believe in many things said and said\, over and over since ages but NO ONE seems to care.\nMay-be\, a glimpse of the vision of an idea about the automatisation of humanity through social media.

SUMMARY:a'21: Trouble Market _amberPlatform
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: Trouble Market _amberPlatform \nAs part of the workshop\, we focus on humanity's current troubles and make them marketable. Come on\, start selling your troubles now! \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN) :: \nMany problems facing humanity today are actually the problems that companies and states (or power centres) generate to protect their economic or political systems\, beyond human activities. In the face of this power\, many people have somehow acknowledged the problems and lost their belief that things could change\, rather than focusing on the problems that they had to focus on\, and even let go of those problems. TROUBLE MARKET is a speculative design fiction to draw attention to the troubles of the local society to which people belong; that tries to commodify troubles and sell them with the help of a website\, exactly as the system fictionalises. Using the methods the system uses to get people's attention\, it invites them to face the troubles they are trying to escape from. \n► The event link will be shared a few days before the event.

SUMMARY:a'21: Knowing is an Illusion: Water Truth Egg_amberPlatform
DESCRIPTION:The workshop focuses on the aesthetics of the cumulative nature of information that is unlearned and relearned in a holistic\, experience-oriented\, democratic and de-colonialist manner\, in which the practice travels around the theory and the mainstream meanings attached are questioned. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/TR) :: \nTaking the birth and transmission of knowledge via digital platforms as its base\, the workshop focuses on the aesthetics of the cumulative nature of information that is unlearned and relearned in a holistic\, experience-oriented\, democratic and de-colonialist manner\, in which the practice travels around the theory and the mainstream meanings attached are questioned. As a counter-discourse to the potentially alienating power of digital information flow from the objective reality (or facts)\, this unlearn and relearn practice offers a concentration on the question ‘is it really like this\, or do I perceive this way?’ in our post-truth society enhanced by the digital culture. This questioning happens in the liminal space between the duality of perception and fact. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo. \n\n:: LINKS :: \n► Ozan Atalan \nWebsite\nInstagram\nFacebook \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centring perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more.The project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \nProduced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform \nCuratorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi Participants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more.

Our galleries\, concepts of art and inspirations are mostly western because the whole ecosystem is built to sell\, and please sellers who are mostly from the western world or are hugely influenced by the latter\, which can distort the creativity and authenticity of our art world.\nIn the global post-digital era\, a lot of underground artists exist and resist\, and find their inspiration in their futuristic roots\, and they deconstruct the dominant aesthetics by investing the glitch\, the distorted and the error. \nLanguage : Moroccan Darija mixed with English (translation will come later in subtitles) \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n►Join the event through vimeo.  \n\n:: LINKS :: \n► Kounaktif\nInstagram\nFacebook  \n► Younes El Hossaini\, Badr Houary\, Elodie Lanard\nInstagram  \n► Simo Mansouri \nInstagram \nFacebook\nSoundcloud \n► Abdessamad Baddis\nInstagram \n► Youssef El Idrissi \nInstagram \nFacebook \nWebsite \n► Fatine Arafati\, Kawtar Benlakhdar\, Abir Guasmi\, Salma Kossemini\, Constance Léon\, Youssef El Idrissi \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centring perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more.The project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \nProduced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform \nCuratorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi Participants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more. \nFunded by: Capital Cultural Fund \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de

SUMMARY:a'21: online VR Storytellers and Hackathon
DESCRIPTION:► a'21: online VR workshops and hackathon \n(Schedule below) \n“Urban spaces and places transform the way we explain the world to ourselves and others and define the way we see ourselves; provide the necessary infrastructure to transform the way we see our bodies and genders globally.” (Jerram\, 2011) \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT :: \nAmber Network Festival hosts an international online VR workshop and hackathon. V’R’ Storytellers invites artists\, urbanists\, designers\, coders\, 3D artists\, photographers and other professionals to generate creative stories for a virtual exhibition in Umurbey Neighbourhood (Izmir/Turkey) hosted by Darağaç Collective. Regardless of its location on the map\, this district particularly reminds us of many common problems which are discussed throughout the world.\nThe V’R’ Storytellers revolves around a series of hands-on workshops where artists and participants can share their projects and insights\, and concludes with a 3-day hackathon.\nDuring the hackathon\, participants will be invited to utilize VR and develop artistic experiences to the theme: boundaries of urban transformation/gentrification/renewal and refugee/immigrant/guest/neighbor. These concepts support the scope of the festival's theme of Post-Digital Ignorance and the urban texture. Interested participants will be encouraged to utilise the Umurbey Neighbourhood/Daragac as a canvas for their work though it is not a requirement.\nNo previous experience is required. Women\, POC\, LGBTQ+ and others under-represented in the tech world are highly encouraged to apply. \n►Who can participate? This event is open to artists\, designers\, coders\, digital artists\, photographers and people from other creative fields. amberNetworkFestival will assure the streaming of the different workshops on a’21 Video Conference Server link to the participants and will prepare an email group for each team. The Compilation of projects will be presented on a’21 Video Conference ServerSun. \nApplication procedure: The deadline for applications is Friday\, March 12 // 150 words motivation letter  for "Amber’21 online VR workshop and hackathon" via email VR@ambernetworkfestival.org \nAbout Daragac İzmir: The Darağaç Collective (DC) is a creative collaboration between a group of artists who live and practice art in the Umurbey Neighborhood in Izmir\, Turkey\, and members of the local community. Umurbey is located close to the southeastern shore of Izmir Bay\, a mainly industrial and commercial zone which is popularly known as Darağaç. The neighborhood has a diverse character with industrial buildings\, abandoned factories\, warehouses and houses\, mainly two-story\, some of which date back to the late 19th and the early 20th century. In the last few years\, Darağaç has received considerable media and scholarly interest both for the contemporary art exhibitions organised by the DC and the active contribution of the local community in both hosting and participating in these exhibitions. The main goal of DC is to transform the neighbourhood into a space where young artists can show their work and to create a common discourse. Darağaç\, due to the lack of venues in Izmir\, acts as a reconciliation zone for the emerging artist and the public space.

Digital Daragac Monday\, 5 April\, 16:00-17:30 \nTalk by Guzden Varinlioglu \nDescription: We have been witnessing a period in which artworks transfer from galleries and museums into spaces of daily life and architecture becomes an artwork. As an alternative to institutional spaces of museum and gallery\, artists are forming art collectives by settling at low-income neighbourhoods. On the contrary to the conventional\, introverted spaces designed to function particularly for exhibition\, these collectives\, without an official and institutional substructure\, signify a hybrid\, temporary\, mobile and functionally blurred concept of “art-space”. In this framework\, a case study is conducted on Darağaç Collective which live and produce at Umurbey Neighbourhood. The concept of art-space is compared with other art collectives in Turkey by means of group and individual interviews\, participant observations\, and archival research. This research examines this alternative art collective which has turned the neighborhood into an art-space. There is no museum / virtual museum in Izmir to house works of the artists. Therefore\, artists initiated independent art collectives. DARAĞAÇ artworks are produced and exhibited in uncontrolled environment of the streets of Alsancak Umurbey Neighbourhood. Using these artworks as a case study\, this research intends to design and implement an augmented reality that works in public spaces where there is uncontrolled light\, sound and human traffic. \nBio: Through the course of Guzden Varinlioglu's undergraduate education in architecture at METU and her graduate education in graphic design at Bilkent University\, she became interested in digital technology and its contribution to the preservation and presentation of cultural heritage. Her research period at TAMU in 2010 was followed by a Ph.D. degree from the Program of Art\, Design\, and Architecture at Bilkent University. In 2011\, Guzden received a post-doc position in architectural design computing at ITU\, and\, in 2013-2014\, as a visiting scholar\, conducted further research at the Centre of Digital Humanities at UCLA. She is currently serving as Associate Professor of Architecture at the IEU\, where she specialises in computational design. At the İzmir University of Economics\, she initiated the digital fabrication team (EcoFAB)\, VRlab and Digital Humanities Lab. \nVR TALKS 2. Storytelling in 360 degree Tuesday\, April 6\, 16:00-17:30 \nTalk by Soheila Golestani \nDescription: I will be talking about Storytelling in 360 degrees\, while presenting some examples of my works and the way I developed the ideas\, translating them into VR films The presentation will include subjects like the structural difference of storytelling & narration in VR space and was experienced before its emergence\, and the way we can train our mind to be able to transform our ideas for a 360 degree imagination. In the 2nd part of the talk we will go through the ideas of the participants and how to develop them toward a 360 experience. It is strongly recommended that the participants submit a sketch of what they want to create and a bit of background on their practice and focus. \nBio: Soheila Golestani is a filmmaker and actress based in Tehran\, She is a graduate in theater from the theater& cinema faculty of the Art University Tehran and ever since cinema has been her main focus\, in 2016 she made “if you go away” the first fiction VR film in Iran which won the best VR film award at Tampre film festival in Finland. She has made Vr documentaries and animation-based projects in 360 degree for theater. \nVR TALKS 3. VR\, anthropology of tomorrow\, connecting narratives and the birth of new archives Wednesday\, April 7\, 16:00-17:30 \nTalk by Selim Harbi \nDescription: Based on my latest VR Project: Afroroutes\, I will be addressing the issue of rebuilding the dispatched\, forgotten and disfigured narratives \, and how VR could be a game changer\, reconnecting invisible stories. Also through the process how VR is the anthropology tool of the future par excellence\, expanding to the vital issue of new-archive creation. \nBio: Transmedia storyteller & journalist\, award-winning director\, TEDx Speaker\, and World Press Photo grantee.

VR/AR Talk\, DAHProject Thursday\, April 11\, 15:00-17:30 \nTalk by Mohsen Hazrati \nDescription: Today\, Creation with digital tools is not completely restricted to be a professional in using these technologies like before\, and every day a new tool with a different level of possibility comes to the market to facilitate the creation process\, So a wider range of Ideas could come alive\, in the workshop\, we will talk about how VR and AR could break the boundaries\, open new windows of imagination for artists in any medium and make art creation and curating more accessible. \nBio: Mohsen Hazrati was born in 1987 in Shiraz\, Iran.

Designing experiences: Considerations for analog and virtual worlds Friday\, April 9 16:00-17:30 \nTalk by Rachel Uwa \nDescription: When we talk about virtual and augmented realities most often the discussions begin with defining the tools. However\, there is much value in stepping back even further and asking ourselves: how do we define an experience? In this talk\, I will discuss and share examples around what it means to design an experience with emphasis on how we can connect humans to each other and to themselves more deeply through use of real and virtual spaces. \nBio: Rachel is an artist and organiser whose background is in audio engineering and vfx compositing.

SUMMARY:a'21: Dust to Come_New Media Society/ Parking Video Library
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: Dust to Come_New Media Society/ Parking Video Library \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nDust to come is a re-screening of a former online program at New Media Projects which will take place both online/offline in our space and via our website. Was it ever our future? “The Removed Agency” got me by surprise when I received the invitation to contribute to the Future Threads Program. A teenage sci-fi fan\, who never watched Star Trek or Star Wars\, I asked around from my artist\, cinephile and writer friends\, and in our conversations led to some interesting findings. On the surface\, we don’t talk/write/speculate about the future\, a few animated fantasies\, a few novels dealing with alternative history\, and some timeless dystopian theatre play. And soon I realised I need to educate myself about video games and comic books. Not only we don’t write/create our takes on the future but often being omitted from having future in many other scenarios: in some films\, middle-east is consumed/destroyed\, because of its natural resources and/or appear on some war room’s wall map or flickering dots on a screen during a pandemic outbreak. The future is blurry; we made countless Macro & Micro mistakes; we know the storm is inevitable; we watch science fiction\, or we don’t… The future was never bright as they promised it to be\, for some parts of the world is still as non-existent and discriminatory\, as if it wasn’t pictured at all and never predicted. See-through eyes\, laser guns\, and flying objects became killer drones\, 3D printing both an environmental threat and a cure for ventilator shortage. The colourful plastic future once was pictured dreamy and chic but no one told us about the dust to come. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo. \n:: LINKS :: \n►Arash Khosronejad \nInstagram\n►Arash Hanaei\nWebsite\nInstagram  \n►Nassrin Nasser \nWebsite \nInstagram \n►Maryam Katan \nWebsite\nInstagram \n►Shaahin Peymani \nWebsite\nInstagram  \n►Elnaz Salehi \nInstagram \n►Milad Forouzandeh \nWebsite \n►Mohsen Hazrati \nWebsite\nInstagram  \n►Nazanin Aharipour \nInstagram  \n►Ramin Rahimi \nWebsite  \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centring perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more.The project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \nProduced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform \nCuratorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi Participants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more. \nFunded by: Capital Cultural Fund \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de
