Episode 112 [in English]: Bita Bell

Bita Bell is an international multimedia artist-activist working in contemporary dance, music, and film. Born in Iran and educated in Hong Kong and the United States, she creates audio-visual performative experiences that question contemporary issues. Just prior to the current lockdown, she was choreographing for the Russian feminist punk band PussyRiot’s US tour.

Bita joined us for a wonderful conversation on engaging audiences through interactive performance, maintaining mental health and creativity in quarantine, and what it means to belong to many places and none. Check out more of her work at bitabell.com.

Episode 97 [in English]: Insecuri-Tea (cup 1 of 2)

This is part one of a two-part episode featuring three homo sapiens!  During this portion, we (Nadia Khayrallah, Adam Elsayigh, and Alia) reflect on feelings pertaining to our art practice and where we are currently with that.  We also discuss our thoughts related to the word “activist” and whether or not we claim the label for ourselves.

Credit goes to Nadia for the episode name!
