On September 8, Sunday, the first broadcast was made of the Radio Aktiv Sonic Deep Map, a radio show created for broadcast made up of various recorded material gathered at the Case Pyhäjoki camp for artists, theorists, scholars, cultural producers, and activists to respond to the threat of nuclear power in […]
Fall is hitting Copenhagen and we are interested to see if the amount of apartment hunting signs around the neighborhood slows down.
