The next issue of
Datacide - the magazine for noise and politics - is out this week, and there's
a release party and conference to celebrate it taking place next
Saturday 12th October at Naherholung Sternchen in Berlin.
There will be
talks on 'sexual politics, rave, revolt, and repression' starting at 5pm
including:
CHRISTOPH
FRINGELI
Introduction to
the thirteenth print edition of datacide – the magazine for noise &
politics
JASON SKEET
(UK)
In
search of the constructivist moment: from Russian Futurism to South London
Speedcore (via 1975)
"It's not freedom
that I want but a way out!" So proclaimed the ape in Kafka's short story 'A
Report to the Academy'. This talk takes this ape's proclamation as a reference
point for the construction of a map that could be used to locate potential
points of escape. The first part of this talk identifies what exactly it is that
we may be seeking to escape from. We will then embark on an exploration of a
series of problems, some of which may involve us asking: what is the meaning of
Mayakovsky's "our''? what is a sonic community? and how exactly did the world
change in 1975? Jason Skeet is currently completing a book about contemporary
poetry. In the last years of the previous century he was involved in the
Association of Autonomous Astronauts (AAA) and this talk may, or may not, build
on a certain number of exit strategies previously put forward by the AAA'.
DAVID CECIL
(UGANDA)
Confessions of an
Accidental Activist – Sexual politics and homophobia in Uganda
David Cecil’s
contribution to this issue of Datacide looks at the politics of sexuality in
Uganda from a very subjective angle. The author found himself in the media
spotlight in 2012/13 after he produced a comedy drama in Kampala (Uganda) which
was mistakenly portrayed as a piece of ‘gay activism’. The US evangelist
movement, international rights activists and the mainstream media have all
contributed in different ways to misleading perceptions of sexuality in Uganda.
Meanwhile, more substantial and complex factors of post-colonial socio-economic
transformation have been (deliberately?) overlooked, along with the actual
experience of daily life for LGBTI people in Uganda. The author will give a
brief presentation
focusing on the
politics of identity in Uganda, and looks forward to a discussion on
international sexual politics.
MARK HARRISON
(SPIRAL TRIBE)
A
Darker Electricity - a co-founder talks about the history of Spiral Tribe
Mark will be
talking about his personal experience with the Spiral Tribe sound system and how
that experience revealed the establishment's invention of plausible narratives
to define territories and control them – whether those territories be physical,
social, intellectual, artistic or electronic.
The party includes
a top line up of noise/experimental/breakcore/drum & bass sounds:
