SUMMARY:FRATZ Festival: KOLOFU (2+)
DESCRIPTION:Performance von KiNiNso Koncepts (Nigeria) \nFarben haben in Bezug auf Menschen häufig wertende\, auch negative Assoziationen. Die weltweit verbreiteten Zuschreibungen aufgrund von Haut-Farben wie schwarz\, weiß\, rot\, gelb\, ... sind absurd\, diskriminierend und nehmen uns die Freude an der Schönheit der Farben. Das Team von KOLOFU wollte diesen Zustand nicht hinnehmen und fragte sich: »Können Farben einfach nur schön sein? Nur schön und nichts anderes?« In einem performativen Farbenspiel mit Tellern\, Löffeln\, Strohhalmen und Wind entsteht ein vereinendes und faszinierendes Theatererlebnis für Kinder\, Erwachsene und Performer:innen. Sie zeigen\, dass alle Menschen zusammen leben und spielen können. \n2017 war KiNiNso Koncepts bereits mit der Inszenierung Sandscapes zu FRATZ International eingeladen. Damals wurden den Künstler:innen die notwendigen Visa verweigert\, was eine Welle des Protests auslöste. 2019 war Joshua Alabi als Festivalbeobachter und Symposiumsteilnehmer zu Gast bei FRATZ. Wir freuen uns die Arbeitsbeziehung mit dem diesjährigen Gastspiel fortsetzen zu können. \nKOLOFU ist eine von drei Inszenierungen\, die aus einem FRATZ Labor zum Thema SKIN TONE hervorging. Im Rahmen von FRATZ International 2020 forschte die Gruppe zu Hautfarben\, Bleichen und Tönen\, Kolorismus\, Rassendiskriminierung und Identität. Neben KOLOFU ab 2 Jahren\, entstand Cream Body\, eine Komödie für Erwachsene und Skin\, eine Arbeit für Kinder ab 6 Jahren. \nKiNiNso Koncepts ist eine Company für Storytelling\, Film\, Theater\, Performances und Weiterbildung. Ihr Ziel ist es\, durch innovative Performance- und Erzähltechniken in Verbindung mit intensiver Erforschung der eigenen kulturellen Wurzeln und Traditionen\, relevante Botschaften zu transportieren. Immer wieder stellen die Künstler:innen in ihrer Arbeit den Status quo in Frage. In Nigeria und weltweit haben sie bereits über 1000 Menschen ausgebildet und ein großes Netzwerk junger Künstler:innen aufgebaut. Joshua Alabi\, Gründer von KiNiNso Koncepts\, leitet lokale und internationale Projekte in Afrika und Europa. Unter anderem schrieb\, produzierte und inszenierte er Theaterstücke im Auftrag des British Council/UKAID\, der Europäischen Union\, des Goethe-Instituts und der Mac Arthur Foundation. \n\nKonzept / Regie: Joshua Alabi\nRecherche: Aniefiok Inyang\nSpiel: Aniefiok Inyang\, Chinenye Chukwudi\, Oluchukwu Ukachukwu\, Julius Obende\nProduktionsleitung: Angela Peters\nRechtsberatung: Praise Alabi \nTickets \nTickets für alle FRATZ-Festival Veranstaltungen gibt es hier.\nKontakt für Kita-Gruppen: Annea Lounatvuori | annea@theater-on.de | +49 (0)30 440 92 14\nReservierung außerdem via: ticket@fratz-festival.de | accreditation@fratz-festival.de \nIm Rahmen von „FRATZ International 2022. Festival für die Jüngsten“  \nGefördert durch das Land Berlin – Senatsverwaltung für Kultur und Europa im Rahmen der Förderung von stadtpolitisch relevanten Festivals 2020 bis 2023. “Kolofu” wird freundlich unterstützt vom Goethe-Institut Nigeria. \n◥ Im Oyoun ist kein Platz für Sexismus\, Queerfeindlichkeit\, Transfeindlichkeit\, jegliche Form von Rassismus oder Diskriminierung wie antischwarzem\, antimuslimischem Rassismus oder Antisemistismus. Dasselbe gilt für jede Art von gewalttätigem\, aggressivem oder übergriffigem Verhalten.

SUMMARY:FRATZ Festival: TAH DAM! (2+)
DESCRIPTION:Musik- und Tanzperformance von MusicDance Cape Town (Südafrika)  \nTAH DAM! ist eine Musik- und Tanzperformance für Familien und Kinder. Die teils traditionell afrikanische\, teils traditionell europäische Musik wird auf vielen interessanten Instrumenten gespielt: Mbira (aus Simbabwe)\, Djembe (aus Westafrika)\, Umtshingo (aus Südafrika)\, Adungu (aus Uganda) und auch ein Klavier\, Regenstäbe und Gesang kommen zum Einsatz. \nTAH DAM! besteht aus fünf Teilen: Das Wasserlied (»The Water Song«) beschäftigt sich mit Wasser\, wie es fließt und sich bewegt und was so darin lebt. Im Windlied (»The Wind Song«) geht es darum zu fliegen\, zu pusten\, wie etwas schwebt und weht und sich dreht. Das Erdlied (»The Earth Song«) ist vom Rhythmus des traditionallen Mapiko-Tanzes aus Mosambik inspiriert. Das Körperlied (»The Body Song«) lauscht den taktilen Geräuschen\, die wir selber machen. Ganz zum Schluss dann das Liedlied (»The Song Song«)\, das uns einlädt miteinander zu tanzen und die Bewegungen der anderen nachzumachen. \nTAH DAM! entstand im Juni 2020 in Kapstadt als ein Forschungslabor des FRATZ International. Auf einer zugehörigen Website finden sich Aktivitätsvideos\, um das Theatererlebnis zu vertiefen. TAH DAM! möchte Kinder und Eltern dazu inspirieren auch zu Hause weiter Musik zu machen und zu tanzen – das bedeutet auch der englische Ausdruck »Together at Home – Dance and Music!« oder kurz: TAH DAM! \nDie Künstler*innen von TAH DAM! kommen aus Südafrika\, Italien und Mosambik. Die Gruppe fand sich über das seit 2018 von Thalia Laric und Manuela Lucia Tessi geleitete Projekt MusicDance Cape Town. Das Projekt bringt Tänzer*innen und Musiker*innen unterschiedlicher Hintergründe zusammen und fördert die Zusammenarbeit der verschiedenen Disziplinen. Der Schwerpunkt der Arbeit liegt auf Kompositionen\, die interdisziplinärer und in Echtzeit entstehen. \nSpiel / Regie: Thalia Laric\nSpiel: Manuela Lucia Tessi\, Vintani Nafassi\, Sumalgy Nuro\, Coila-Leah Enderstein\nDramaturgie: Nicola Elliott-Wong \nTickets \nTickets für alle FRATZ-Festival Veranstaltungen gibt es hier.\nKontakt für Kita-Gruppen: Annea Lounatvuori | annea@theater-on.de | +49 (0)30 440 92 14\nReservierung außerdem via: ticket@fratz-festival.de | accreditation@fratz-festival.de \nIm Rahmen von „FRATZ International 2022.

SUMMARY:a'21: Exchanges Through The Silk Road_DAHproject
DESCRIPTION:► a'21: Exchanges Through The Silk Road_DAHproject \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nLiving in the Middle East region and some parts around it can feel as if you're being held in a euphoric state in a moment\, just as it can feel as you're left floating in some kind of vacuum in another. the more this realm embraces you in its mysterious sky and soil the more you'll find yourself deciphering. a piece of poetry generously returns you to yourself reflecting on its ranges and fields. middle East has been trading since ancient times. but today the exchange of information is taking a new route. the great silk route has been replaced by colourful digital platforms that tend to help us in the transference of our information\, apps that try to impress us and are mostly designed to ease us down and even perhaps calmly and slowly change our lives in particular ways. Are these new digital possibilities transferring our information untouched? \n>> Are they truly generating the right image of us? >>> 🙁 >>> Are they truly generating the right image of us? >>> 😐 >>> Are they truly generating the right image of us? >>> :/ \nThis exhibition includes the work of artists who currently reside in the Middle East or have lived in it in the past and have changed their locations due to various reasons .today they have based their communications are on digital platforms as opposed to the traditional ways and are using different potentials of the digital technology to study the different effects of technology on different affairs like culture\, politics\, morality\, science\, and much more. At the back of their mind\, they are reviewing the fast changes of digital technology and sometimes looking at it with a dubious eye. on the other hand\, they are using these potentials to its fullest to make their voices heard. as if they are masters of wielding a double-edged sword. \n►Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► http://www.exchangesthroughthesilkroad.com/ \n:: LINKS :: \n►DAH Project\nInstagram\nFacebook \n#DigitalArt\, #MiddleEast\, #NetArt \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centering perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more. \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: How Do I Know What I Know?_amberPlatform
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: How Do I Know What I Know?_amberPlatform \nThe 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) :: \nA collective game based on the simulation of a process in which unverified information turns into fact thanks to its fast-paced distribution in digital environment. The game will be open to everyone's participation on Instagram\, and at the end\, the participants' content contributions will turn into a data analysis and be exhibited. We tend to believe any information we are exposed to on social media. By sharing them with an urge to “keep up with the current”\, we all contribute to the acceptance of the so-called reality produced by online pseudo-sources spreading unverified information by referencing each other. But\, do we know how we have obtained every information we add into this data pool able to turn anything into a fact? “How do I Know What I Know?” asks the participants to join a game/experiment on how unverified information turns into reality on social media. It begins with an image published by the game initiator on Instagram with the #bildiğimineredenbiliyorum and #howdoiknowwhatiknow hashtags. Underneath the image\, she adds the information she wants to share and a fictional or hypothetical story on how she obtained it. Participants either take the image and change the story\, or take the text and share it with another image. This way\, a cloud of unverified data emerges around the hashtags. The images and texts obtained at the end are shared with the public in the form of data mapping. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo. \n\n:: LINKS:: \n► Ipek Yeginsu\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. \nFunded by: Capital Cultural Fund \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de

SUMMARY:a'21: Absorbing Ignorance: Experiential Illusions_amberPlatform
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: Absorbing Ignorance: Experiential Illusions_amberPlatform \nWhile chronologically reviewing the relationship of the moving image with the observer and the way cinematic editing manages mass perception as an art of creating reality\, we will examine the concept of Immersion as the purpose of breaking away from existence. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nBut man is the most ignorant in moments in which he trusts himself the most.'' - Ape and Essence\, Aldous Huxley In these short video essays that explore the virtual plane of reality and the realism of virtuality through today's popular culture that evolved from myths\, tales and legends\, we will investigate the history of our gaze now lost in the hypnotic flow of a kind of ignorance glorified under the name of knowledge. While chronologically reviewing the relationship of the moving image with the observer and the way cinematic editing manages mass perception as an art of creating reality\, we will examine the concept of Immersion as the purpose of breaking away from existence. We will touch upon the physical impact of developing ""absorbing"" technologies on the masses\, its relationship with ancient practices such as meditation and hypnosis\, and our main motivations behind our ""Suspension of Disbelief"" processes. Our biggest misconception about ""New Media” - which are the new versions of old formations that have been constructed several times and updated with modern technologies - is perhaps that they are new. By referring to early examples in history and questioning the physicality created by the transformation of Cinematic Technologies\, we will look at concepts such as New\, Media\, Virtual\, Reality from a different perspective. As we discover our efforts to create a seamless illusion of reality\, and therefore the story of the term Virtual Reality dating back to the dawn of our civilisation\, we will approach the narrative-based functioning of human perception - which is at the origin of all these mechanisms - on the basis of the concept of mental fiction. As the ever-growing world of experiential delusions draws us in\, are we also being drawn into our own selves? Is the current form of reality subjective or collective? Or is it time for us to re-define reality all over again? \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo. \n:: LINKS :: \n►Lara Kamhi  \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 centering 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:Threshold Infrastructures of Residual Spaces III Border Infrastructures and Forensics
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: Threshold Infrastructures of Residual Spaces-III \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN) :: \nForensic Architecture (FA) is a research agency\, based at Goldsmiths\, University of London\, carrying out investigations with and on behalf of communities and individuals affected by conflict\, police brutality\, border regimes and environmental violence. In this workshop\, FA researcher Stefanos Levidis will discuss the tools and techniques the agency has developed and employed over the past years in order to counter-investigate cases of state violence at the external borders of the EU. Drawing on several complementing case studies\, participants in the workshop will be introduced to complex methodologies of spatial and architectural analysis\, open-source investigation\, digital modelling\, and immersive technologies\, as well as documentary research\, situated interviews\, and cross-disciplinary collaboration. The diverse spectrum of actors and practices involved in these investigations provides critical insight into how novel modes of evidence and testimony amplification emerge\, and how interdisciplinary and collaborative research provides a pathway to democratising the processes of evidence production that have been traditionally monopolised by the state. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo. \n:: LINKS :: \n►Stefanos Levidis\nInstagram\n► Özge Çelikaslan\nFacebook\nInstagram\n► Pelin Tan\nInstagram \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.

DESCRIPTION:►a'21: Inaccessible Present 4.0 _New Media Society \nAudience will be able to see how a public artwork is being produced in the collective. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nThe seemingly irreversible changes which have occurred since the emergence of the pandemic also manifest themselves via dramatic transformations: a highly polarised and stigmatised ONLINE version of the world being fed to each & every one of the “former” world citizens\, web wanderers\, and newcomers who are forces to learn/do every little aspect of life via virtual communications\, while many are pushed to peripheries and darker areas and not everyone affords to stay connected. The digital divide didn’t start yesterday neither the inequalities caused by limiting access\, a peculiar subversion & distortions which owe their existence to the speed & technological void on one hand and manipulation of the public mind. Present Tense tries to shed light on a generation that is difficult to define\, thus often harshly targeted internationally; A generation who seeks to present and execute their independence to experiment in significant ways\, while preserving the right to be invisible. \n► Event will be streamed live via Instagram \n:: LINKS :: \nNassrin Nasser \nSadegh Majlesi \nRamin Rahimi \nRana Dehghan \nHannaneh Heydari \nYas Nik Khoshgrudi \nFalgoush \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.

SUMMARY:a'21: Can wonders lead to other synergies?_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) :: \nHow can we shift from post-digital ignorance to post-digital wisdom? In this event\, participants will create their own wonderland\, on the basis of pandemic conditions we have been through for the last year. The proliferation of virtual applications\, stiffening of the feeling of social isolation as technology pushes the limits\, and the importance of questioning the accuracy of the information instead of directly accepting it\, will be the subjects to be emphasised. The event will also include practices like questioning the (possible\, probable and plausible) future(s) of a city where human-viruses and other creatures live by using design as a form of thought catalyser. Participants from other disciplines will be expected to produce poster designs in visual or text form\, using their own design language. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo. \n:: LINKS :: \n► Ecehan Toprak\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 centering 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.

SUMMARY:a'21: Becoming With Fungi_Mary Maggic
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: Becoming With Fungi_Mary Maggic \nA bio art workshop with Mary Maggic. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nHuman industrial activity (petrochemical\, agricultural\, and pharmaceutical) has permanently altered the planet through the widespread presence of xenoestrogens\, or endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs). Molecules such as BPA\, phthalates\, PCBs\, dioxins\, and synthetic hormones have hormone-mimicking and displacing properties\, and are able to enter and communicate in the molecular semiosphere that we share with almost all animal taxa. While these molecules alienate us from our prescribed notions of “normal” and “natural\,” our bodies stolen by capitalists interests\, this alienation joins us in a shared species vulnerability as we all live-with and become-with these all pervasive toxicities. Is there life among alien ruins? \nIt will be a live workshop hosted in the artist's location in Vienna\, and that it will be livestreamed. The workshop will start with a presentation about the research followed by the hands on fungi protocol. The workshop was conceived through a collaborative residency program at Hangar in Barcelona in 2017 with artists Rian Hammond and Paula Pin. \n► Click going on Facebook to stay up to date\n► Event will be streamed on vimeo. \n:: LINKS :: \n►Mary Maggic \nInstagram\nWebsite \n \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: Sudavision_BAAB Collective
DESCRIPTION:► a'21: Sudavision_BAAB Collective \nThis events aims to show how Sudanese men suffer to express gender equality and freedom of expression against class and race. It shows us who we are and presents our self to the other by using recycling materials. It is our way to point out claimant change in the global south. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nA Fashion art project aiming to explore Sudanese tribal costumes and to reflect the art behind it. Bringing different tribal costumes into the futuristic visionary fashion world and introduce the globe to what Sudan poses in this art domain. This project comes to show the world that Sudan is not only what media and politicians have been trying to reflect to people and impose into their minds. It is a land full of diversity in ethnics\, religions and colours that have been oppressed over the decades and detached from its identity. This oppression by Islamic regime and the world's media presenting Sudan in a cloche way have led to the world's ignorance with these heritages and cultures. And the oppression being applied on these communities have created a huge gap in people’s perception to their own culture and heritage. It has also created hate towards men who do jobs that are perceived as women’s job such as fashion design and tailoring . There for I came up with this project idea to express my love for fashion and allow for the coming generations of Sudan to be able to explore their passion without fearing the judgment of their society and to understand that there is no art that is gender bonded. I as a queer artist coming from these oppressive/oppressed patriarchal societies where any difference is classified as a threat that needs to end in whatever way\, I want to show people of my land and the world how our cultures are unique and how worlds media shouldn’t make us hate it neither hate ourselves for being part of it. Through this art project I want to celebrate this heritage and display Sudan’s fashion in a modern futuristic vision that makes us see how precious it is to look back at our roots and be proud of them. In this project ten Sudanese tribal costumes will be redesigned in a modern futuristic way using different recycled materials and fabrics. These costumes have carried the heritage of tribes and kept them uniquely identified by their techniques of sawing and tailoring as well as their bright color selection. My passion for fashion and design drives me to explore my rich multicultural region and aspire to present these rich cultures and their fashion in a way that haven’t been introduced to the media and the globe. As well as tell the story of black fashion artist and fanatics that have been foreseen over the decades. \n► Zoom Baab collective ID: 9897877156 (3 days before event) \n► Join the event through Vimeo. \nMore Infos on Facebook. \n::Panel participants:: \n►Rayan Elhadi Elsayed Hima\nInstagram\n►Nour Yahya Hamza Yahya\nInstagram\nFacebook\n►Bakry Mohamed Salih\nFacebook\n►Elsadig Mohmmed Ahmed\nInstagram\nFlickr\n►Mohamed Salah Elmur: artist \nInstagram \nFacebook\n►Mustafa Elsiddeg Mustafa Gasemlbari\nFacebook\nInstagram \n►Marwan Osman \n:: LINKS :: \n►BAAB Collective\nInstagram\nYoutube\nFacebook\nTwitter \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 Curatorial 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 \nwww.oyoun.de @oyounberlin \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de

SUMMARY:a'21: Underground women_BAAB Collective
DESCRIPTION:► a'21: Underground women_BAAB Collective \nThis Exhibition is a discussion panel. This event explains how women suffer and gives information about the manipulation of the system to get the information about women health and sexuality and how that affect them by exposing them to the major risk behaviour and conciseness and how this lead to heights mortality rate in the word and this due to lack of information and tools of protection by the states systematic oppressions. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nDespite digital advancements\, the spread of technology and the availability of information\, information is still hoarded by specific parties. This is attributed to the povertisation policies\, the oppression of freedoms and the forms of capitalist colonisation. And in this regard\, third world countries\, especially those with a relogenies background are the worst in intentionally spreading ignorance . The current global system has been produced by the colonial system\, and it leads to the existence of countries that monopolies institutions like education\, law\, and health. This was imposed by the formation of certain ministries\, like health and the health of a person shifted from a responsibility of the family and the society\, to become the responsibility of the state. This has led to communities losing basic information about human health\, especially in terms of women and sexual health . According to statistics\, Sudan has the highest mortality rate of female deaths worldwide\, and this is due to existing policies in Sudan and worldwide un equality\, as well as lack of information. From the above\, came the idea to focus attention on such issues . As Sudanese feminist\, African women coming from Islamic cultures and conservative families with educational privileges. Thus\, came the idea for making a short movie\, inspired by our personal experiences\, that discusses issues of women and sexual health\, and how rooted they are in society in the form of misinformation and myths . Movie name: Underground Women. Concept of the movie: The movie is composed of a dialogue about women health and sexuality between two female friends who share a living\, in a small one bedroom apartment. Ray is a feminist women who graduated from medical school\, and Nour\, is another feminist woman who graduated from the school of economics. \n► The event link will be shared a few days before the event.

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

Here we conquered our fear\, shit and differences. Here a zgrudah (ululation) from a revolutionist mixed with the cheerful machine gun that killed a child\, that freedom whispered in his eager ears a false hope. Here the bloods of martyrs intermingled with a saxophonist soldier whose soul escaped the shame. Here we met with little's\, elders\, bosses and poor's. Here we encountered with smiles and assassins. Here we waited for Atbara artillery*. Here the fear\, joy\, tiredness\, devotion\, love and freedom. Here they killed youths but they couldn't kill their dreams. Here we brought earth and heaven together in a portrait that even the ancient gods cannot imagine . * It is the most powerful & reputed unit in the Sudan army\, the revolutionists waited its interference for long\, but to no avail & eventually it turned into a joke. \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\nInstagram \n► Nour Yahya Hamza Yahya\nInstagram \nFacebook \n► Bakry Mohamed Salih \nFacebook \n► Elsadig Mohmmed Ahmed \nInstagram \n► Mohamed Salah Elmur \nInstagram\nFacebook \n► Mustafa Elsiddeg Mustafa Gasemlbari:\nInstagram\nFacebook\nYoutube \n\n► Marwan Osman \n  \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centering 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

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. A collaboration between Wafa Ben Romdhane aka WAF\, and Deena Abdelwahed. \n:: BIO :: \n►WAF:\nQueer Visual Artist\, actually based in Tunisia after 10 years of living in Europe.

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.

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. He holds a Bachelor of Art in screen-based and Audiovisual Media from Beuth University of applied sciences - Berlin. He was the director assistant of THE ENEMY \, one of the very first VR Projects ever.

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. He graduated with a BA in graphic design from Shiraz Art Institute of Higher Education in 2012\, minoring in new media and digital art.

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. She is the founder of School of Machines\, Making & Make Believe\, a uniquely curated School born in Berlin\, Germany in 2014\, keen on inventing one-of-a-kind hands-on learning experiences in the field of Art\, Technology\, Design\, and human connection. \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 \nThe project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \n► See updating festival program on https://ambernetworkfestival.org/ \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 \nwww.oyoun.de @oyounberlin \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de
