IN CONVERSATION
“Una rama de olivo en una mano, en la otra una canción.”
with Camila Abufom Saba & Loris
A conversation and sound collage that amplifies the voices of Palestine’s diasporas in Latin America. Abufom Saba writes, […] She is Mexican-Palestinian. Or vice versa. Her cultural heritage intertwines with the power of music to take us on a journey beyond nostalgia; it is a testament to the deep roots of our nation that endure despite time.
In the diaspora, as well as under occupation, Palestinians are challenged to take on the responsibility of preserving and sharing our culture and stories. Some of us do this through art.
This collage of music, sounds, and conversations serves as a medium, capable of amplifying our voices and reminding us that we are a resilient community, resisting victimhood. We are not only defined by trauma. Loris’ music dislocates us in space-time by echoing feelings and stories common to the experiences of exile[…]

DISCOURSE PROGRAM
“The Whirlwind of Our Mess: Citational Sound Frequencies”
with Aleyda Rocha, Abiniel João Nascimento, Camile Juárez, Irene Trejo, Nois Radio & Maya Saravia
The diaspora remains a place for intimacies in opacity, undesirable for the outsider, willingly open, and messy to losing control of transmissions not limited to the written word but resonates in a multitude of practices.

CLUB NIGHT
with Lila Tirando a Violeta (Live) / Dengue Dengue Dengue / Dj Babatr / KENYA20HZ
Lila Tirando a Violeta’s live show kicks off the night with her enigmatic sounds, showing her ability to synthesize and transform an infinite range of influences while still remaining true to her core. Followed by the duo Dengue Dengue Dengue who for more than 10 years have explored rhythms from Latin, African, and Anglo culture, re-creating them in electronic form by mixing old and new, and analog and digital, resulting in a unique sound accompanied by hand-crafted visuals. The second part of the night will continue escalating with Dj Babatr considered a reflection of the Venezuelan sound that rethinks and reinterprets electronic music from its context and flavor, transgressing pre-established parameters that previously influenced the scene, taking as a starting point genres such as Hard Techno and Ghetto House. Closing is DJ, music producer, and cultural researcher KENYA20HZ from Rio de Janeiro. She stands out for exploring all the possibilities of low frequencies through her rhythmic connections, as well as her research focused on Urban, Experimental, and Electronic Music. Since 2016, she has been building her name in the international artistic community with simultaneous activities in the areas of Multimedia Research, Technology, and Art.
