Sonic Interventions

A podcast about the poetics of sound and its power to disrupt norms and transform society. Each episode presents conversations with musicians, sound artists, and theatre-makers, with a special ear for postcolonial and/or queer sonic possibilities. Season 1 (Feb-April 2023) was launched for Black History Month with a focus on New York and Chicago. Season 2 (Sep-Oct 2023) features artists based in Berlin, Paris, and Yogyakarta. Our new season starting in February 2024 features South African voices and sounds.
A project conceived by Dr. Layla Zami for the Collaborative Research Center Intervening Arts (SFB 1512 Intervenierende Künste) and the Performance Studies Department (Institut für Theaterwissenschaft) at Freie Universität Berlin.
