SAVAKA VOL.7: Listening to Noise/Silence
2014.03.23 15:00 - 17:00 | Talks
Act of listening to noise is a self-contradictory and self-defeating activity because noise is by its definition what you don’t want to hear. However, this apparent contradiction leads us, the listeners, to start to think what is really an act of listening itself just like the case of listening to alleged silence, while when you listen to silence, you’re listening to something you cannot hear.

SAVAKA VOL.7: (Un)amplified objects
2014.03.22 19:00 - 21:00 | Performance
My main instrument for the recent years has been the amplified and unamplified turntables with objects. I have no background of DJing or collecting vinyl records. For me, turntable is less a record player than a electro-magnetic pick-up to amplify objects’s vibration or a resonator of certain things without any amplification. When things are amplified (or represented), then they lose their sonic presence; amplifier and speaker take over the presence and the sound gets more objectified.

From Cultural Dualism to the Regenerative Powers of Myths from the Contemporary Chinese Character System
2014.03.15 19:00 - 21:00 | Talks
The program extends the cultural dualism within the artworks of Bharti Kher as a starting point towards a larger discussion about the changes in visual images of life forms from a Chinese taxonomy originating in the radicals of Chinese characters to the introduction of Western binomial nomenclature. With this particular model of Chinese classification, we can observe the regenerative capabilities of legends in the contemporary Chinese language.

In addition to ongoing artistic creation and performance throughout the years, the space has hosted events such as theater and film festivals providing the city with a glimpse into a precious alternative cultural life and its creative energy.
