- Description provided by the artist: .'WITHIN / Infinite Ear' is a collaboration between artists and researchers but also local communities, and consists of an exhibition with images and objects, but also performances and a film programme, all investigating the experience of deafness, sound, and hearing. I'll just copy paste something here: .'To what extent do we hear? What can hearing and deaf people learn from each other’s abilities? In what ways can such knowledge improve political representation of the diversity of hearing? How can it influence the way we understand sound performance, its space and instrumentation?. .Since 2013, Tarek Atoui and Council have worked with Deaf and differently-hearing persons to create spaces to explore, understand and represent the diversity of the hearing experience. Combining the scientific history of hearing with the history of sonic arts and Deaf culture, these sites seek to renew the ways we relate to sound perception. .This research has led to WITHIN / Infinite Ear, an exhibition consisting of a number of collections (of instruments, recordings, books, films and artworks) that will grow and shift as the project progresses.'. .What I love about this project is that it brings people together in a space and allows them to interact with things, or experiences things, knowing that they are all .experience it differently. Deaf people and non-deaf people will hear the performance concert together but different, or the exercises will have different experiences for .them. I think examining sound as a material experience has a lot of potential for our interest in equality otherwise and embodied discomfort.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by the artist: .The object is a YouTube video titled 'In My Language'. The video consists of two parts. In the first part, Baggs communicates in their, what they call, 'native language', and in the second part, a computerized text-to-speech voice shares a statement on oppression and how language and communication figure in exclusionary practices. The video is often written about in online activist communities as well as scholarship on disability.. . .I think Baggs articulates a really powerful critique to normative models of the 'human' that fail to see them as a person. The video offers an insight into their world .while simultaneously challenges the (presumed neurotypical) viewer's capacity to become attuned to their world. The video is not just a statement, it's also a work of .art in its own right and beautiful to watch. It fits with the concept of Equality Otherwise because it addresses what kind of vocabulary we use to address injustice, as .well as the care we take in our capacity to attend to injustices.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by the artist: .The short video ‘103 shots’ by artist Heather Cassils is a project that responds to the massacre at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando. It was filmed at the San Fransisco Pride, and features couples and friends hugging and embracing as a balloon between their bodies pops. The eerie sound of popping balloons allude to the shots fired in the Pulse nightclub. 103: for every life lost and person wounded.. .In their self-created safe space, queer people - mostly people of colour - were brutally attacked. The presumption of their safe space made many people are the party mistake the sounds of the gunshots for the beat of the music. The video and the accompanying description highlight the importance of bars and nightlife to queer culture. To me, the embrace around the popping balloon is a sharp image of how facility and intimacy are always wound up with each other, particularly for queer people. Cassils’ video simultaneously commemorates loss and celebrates queer existence, and it carries on a rich aesthetic and political tradition in queer activism.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by the artist: .Rana Hamadeh’s exhibition is part of a long-term project, also titled ‘Ten Murders of Josephine’. This exhibition was a spatial realization of an opera piece that was also performed in December. The space functions as the factory or assembly line for that opera, lasting 45 minutes. The visitor walks through this sonic landscape, shifting through the different movements of the opera. Among various references in the exhibition, there is a central presence for the court case of the Zong massacre, where the slave holders threw the enslaved off the ship the hope to receive insurance money over their ‘cargo’. Hamadeh takes this court case, where only the voices of the slave holders .could be heard, as an entry point into the problem of testimony and absent speech. ‘Ten Murders of Josephine’ is an inquiry into how violence can be attended to when confronted with absence, using voice and sound as instruments in creating space for these reflections.. .This exhibition inspired me in two ways, one is more related to sound and design, the other more conceptual. What I loved about this exhibition was the sonic immersion. I’ve never seen an exhibition that was so holistic, where you experienced the entirety of it instead of individual pieces. There weren’t even any description tags, you had to surrender to the entirety of the space. The rooms had a fantastic sound system that made you feel every vibration, and small red bulbs indicated in which room the sound was present at the moment, allowing you to enter the stages of the opera timeline. The .sound guided you, and gave you a physical as well as temporal framework for being in the space. Then I think it is so interesting how Hamadeh tries to deal with a history that is marked by absence. How do you account for stories, voices, sounds that have been .suppressed? Without recuperating this absence into some sort of presence, but to gesture to the absence so that we understand it as absent? A really cool example .of the 'otherwise'.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/
