Artist Talk : "Sound, Systems, and Who Controls Them"
About the panel
A conversation with Deena Abdelwahed on sound as a site of resistance — how electronic music becomes a space to claim artistic freedom, push back against gatekeeping, and question who controls the systems that shape what gets heard and by whom. Moderated by Salome Asega, whose own work interrogating who holds power over technology brings a sharp, complementary lens to the discussion.
