DATE: 10 April, 2023
TIME: 18:00
LOCATION: Café PRITLIČJE, Ljubljana

On an otherwise unusual, presumably empty Easter Monday, the Emanat/Kamizdat Pritličje team and Ustanova invites you to a relaxed meeting with AGF poemproducer, Antye Greie-Ripatti and her companion on this tour, Mary C. While the latter will be playing a set at the Ustanova party at Tiffany+Monokel the day before, meet both of them for afternoon tea and discussion at 6pm at Cafe PRITLIČJE. The purpose of this gathering is to exchange and map experiences and knowledge in Eastern European sound queer feminist territories.

All those whose work in any way engages them in the fields of sound research, politics, noise, socio-economics, music and queer feminism are very warmly invited to attend.
