Please join for a listening session organised by @noniinmagazine with @golrokhn and @jyotsnasmailbox on Wednesday, June 16th at 2–4pm EEST. This event will be accessible via Zoom for everyone with registration, email to eliisa.suvanto@publics.fi for the link. . The listening session offers an insightful engagement into the practices of Golrokh Nafisi and Jyotsna Siddharth, and how they intermingle their politics with matters of love, work, artistic practice in both domestic and transnational spaces – envisioning a community that can come together to barter the contractual and conditional with access and existence. . NO NIIN is an online monthly magazine at the cusp of art, criticality, and love founded in January 2021 by @ellerahmati and @vidheshwari. The magazine functions as a platform for commissioning writers of any background to express their thoughts in the form of essays, exhibition reviews, interviews, images, poetry, playlists, and podcasts. . NO NIIN was invited by PUBLICS to organise a small gathering as part of @openupeu cultural project and Parahosting Laboratory including listening and reading sessions and talks with cultural workers and independent non-profit initiatives. Open Up is co-funded by the Creative Europe programme.
