News From Where We Are #5 - The Radical Friendship series
Welcome to Furtherfield's cultural podcast grounded in news from where we are. This ongoing series of podcasts are dedicated to the collaborative-imaginative fieldwork of artists, techies, and activists informing how we organise, imagine and build solidarity, good health and post-capitalist realities. Working together and supporting others to do the same. In 2021 we celebrate 25 years of radical friendship at Furtherfield. We are revisiting past and current collaborators to discuss their fascinating ideas and what they’re up to. These are critically in-tune thinkers working cross-disciplinary practices, examining various aspects of the Internet now and post-digital contexts. They are changing culture, their lives, and the lives of their communities. We are interested in unearthing an ecological economy, relational understanding, and lived lives, alongside survival strategies, critical thinking and grassroots systems of peer and individual engagement, as part of the art context. We are examining power and how lives get lived, on whose terms, living the proposition, and what it means in the 21st century. For this episode, we have three excellent interviews. Two by Filippo Florenzin with Angela Washko and Rosa Menkman, and my interview with Cornelia Sollfrank. Cornelia Sollfrank, since the mid-1990s has investigated the worldwide communication networks and transferred artistic strategies of the classical avant-gardes into the digital medium. Her special interest lies in experimenting with new models of authorship, in continuing various forms of artistic appropriation and in deconstructing myths around geniality and originality. She is currently working as an associate researcher in the project “Creating Commons.” Angela Washko is an artist who creates new forums for discussions about feminism in spaces frequently hostile toward women, femmes, and non-binary people. Washko’s practice spans interventions in mainstream media, performance art, installation, digital art, writing, video, and video games. Rosa Menkman's work focuses on noise artefacts that result from accidents in both analogue and digital media (such as glitch and encoding and feedback artefacts). The resulting artefacts of these accidents can facilitate an important insight into the otherwise obscure alchemy of standardization via resolutions. As usual, we have special guest appearances of experimental noisemakers and music, which includes: AGF (poemproducer), and other audio related surprises.

News From Where We Are #4 - The Radical Friendship series
Welcome to Furtherfield's cultural podcast grounded in news from where we are. We may be experiencing all kinds of restrictions on our lives due to the pandemic, but we still have access to thriving networked cultures from around the world. And this podcast is dedicated to the collaborative-imaginative fieldwork of artists, techies, and activists informing how we organise, imagine and build solidarity, good health and post-capitalist realities. Working together and supporting others to do the same. In 2021 we celebrate 25 years of radical friendship at Furtherfield. We revisit and open up conversations with some of the fascinating and radical people with whom we have worked and collaborated through the years from the Internet to post-digital contexts. They are changing culture, their lives, and the lives of their communities. We are interested in unearthing an ecological economy, relational understanding, and lived lives, alongside survival strategies, critical thinking and grassroots systems of peer and individual engagement, as part of the art context. We are examining power and how lives get lived, on whose terms. In this episode, we are excited to bring you two excellent interviews by new media art critic and writer Filippo Lorenzin. The first with the pioneering artist Auriea Harvey about her new bodies of work - sculptures using digital processes and handwork to create physical artefacts and virtual spaces. The second interview is with artist Morehshin Allahyari about how her work deals with the political, social, and cultural contradictions we face every day. Net art historian Josephine Bosma and artist, curator and thinker Baruch Gottlieb engage in a Post-Most talk, a playful theoretical conversation exploring the pros and cons of the use of the prefix 'post', in terms such as post-modern, post-digital etc. As always these mind-expanding conversations are interspersed with special guest appearances of the finest experimental noisemakers and music, which includes: AGF (poemproducer), the new single 'California Ideology' by Eryk Salvaggio's electro band, The Organizing Committee, and a short soundscape by ‘People Like Us’.
