*Ràdio Web MACBA most listened podcasts - April 2018* *1- SON[I]A #257. val flores (only available in Spanish)* <https://rwm.macba.cat/es/sonia/val-flores-main/capsula>
Nos tomamos unos mates con val flores mientras conversamos sobre pedagogía queer, escritura y microactivismos. Hablamos sobre la práctica docente como práctica política, sobre lo queer como forma de disidencia capaz de activar saberes deshetrosexualizantes y sobre la necesidad de articular nuevos modos de habitar y escribir nuestras identidades que derriben las fronteras del género, la raza y la clase.

Nina Power* <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/nina-power-main/capsula> Nina Power <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/nina-power-main/capsula> shares her thoughts on the ideological power of language, on systems of state violence, surveillance and control, and her own notion of “decapitalism”. *This podcast is part of Re-Imagine Europe, co-funded by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union*. *Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/nina-power-main/capsula <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/nina-power-main/capsula>* 3- *PROBES series. Curated by Chris Cutler <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/probes_tag>* Link: http://rwm.macba.cat/en/probes_tag PROBES <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/probes_tag> takes Marshall McLuhan’s conceptual contrapositions as a starting point to analyse and expose the search for a new sonic language made urgent after the collapse of tonality in the twentieth century. The series looks at the many probes and experiments that were launched in the last century in search of new musical resources, and a new aesthetic; for ways to make music adequate to a world transformed by disorientating technologies. You can find the latest instalment of the series, tackling the issue of noise - and what we mean by it – before examining the toy symphonies and the musical career of the infamous toy piano. <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/curatorial/probes-23-1-chris-cutler/capsula> *4- INTERRUPTIONS #21. Short Waves / Long Distance <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/curatorial/wave-farm-short-waves-long-distances/capsula>* * <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/curatorial/wave-farm-short-waves-long-distances/capsula>* *Curated by Wave Farm. In collaboration with the Shortwave Shindig.* This show presents an international look at works that explore the sonics of the shortwave radio spectrum (2-30 mHz), and the experience of long distance listening. The program features works by 15 artists who originate from Canada, Italy, New Zealand, Poland, Scotland, Spain, and the United States. The artists and works included in this program were selected from a call for submissions in conjunction with the 30th anniversary of the Winter Shortwave Listening Fest (Pennsylvania, U.S.A) and Wave Farm's (New York) 20th anniversary year, which took place in 2017.

Griselda Pollock <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/griselda-pollock-main/capsula>* *In this podcast Griselda Pollock talks about her involvement in the Women’s Movement in England in the seventies, and about the points of convergence between feminism and art history. She gives a detailed analysis of the ideas set out in 'Old Mistresses: Women, Art and Ideology', a seminal text written with Rozsika Parker in 1981, in which they chart a new cultural imaginary based on works created by women artists throughout history. In her 1987 'Feminist Interventions in Art’s Histories', Pollock advocates the need to decentralise and diversify knowledge, and to design resistance strategies specific to each socio-political context. And, last but not least, drawing on her most recent essay 'Is Feminism a Bad Memory or a Virtual Future?', Griselda reflects on memory technologies, trauma, Oedipal and mother-child relationships, narratives of progress, and Bracha Ettinger’s matrixial ethics.* *Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/griselda-pollock-main/capsula <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/griselda-pollock-main/capsula>* *E/N/J/O/Y!!!* *E/N/J/O/Y!!!* *E/N/J/O/Y!!!* *E/N/J/O/Y!!!* *+ if you want to listen to other conversations on feminism, we compiled some of them here: **https://rwm.macba.cat/en/8m_tag <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/8m_tag>*
