PERONAS
Vilnius, summer of 2019. Just outside the old city walls, past the local market hall, left down the small cobblestoned street. A haven for the misfits.

Debbie Chia – Unseen Mix
I feel that our imagination is the greatest thriller of all time. What we cannot see is infinitely more scary than what we can see. Putting together this mix, I pulled in tracks that open up your mind’s theatre. The tracks have actually done all the work for me by creating unnerving tension with imaginative sonics. But because I am not an asshole, there are also bits of catharsis when you can kind of release all of it. However, a meditative ambient mix this is not. Enjoy the show.

Artikel ini adalah salah satu upaya untuk mendokumentasikan karya teater eksperimental “Aryati” Soydivision yang akan datang. Artikel ini berfocus ke cerita awal bagaimana Ide awal muncul dari workshop Jendela Sonorama. Rencananya akan ada seri tulisan berikutnya di beberapa edisi Soy & Zine kedepan. Tulisan ini juga dibuat dengan bahasa Indonesia dan baru kemudian diterjemahkan ke bahasa Inggris, jadi versi terjemahan tidak akan seakurat versi asli baik terjemahan kata ataupun pemaknaan kalimat.
“The Margins Talk Back: Introducing KAUM Discourse Events “

The margin is an off-center space. It comprises the majority actually, yet people inhabiting it are constantly positioned as the subordinate other to the self-constructed, geographical, political and ideological centers. In Indonesia, marginality assumes many faces. It is reified through historical, political, religious, sexual, gender, cultural, ethnic, economic and social differences that constitute the supposedly pluralistic country. It operates through different forms and intensities and is threaded by a common pattern of violence. To be part of marginalized communities often means to be made vulnerable to disenfranchisement, impoverishment, inequality, intolerance, stigma and discrimination.
KAUM Festival 2021 Discourse : “Negotiating Belonging in Eastern Indonesia”
Negotiating Belonging in Eastern Indonesia
At Ana Conda am Ufer in Uferstudios
10.08.2021
Hosted by Ferdiansyah Thajib (Researcher) Speaker : Amanda Valani (Filmmaker), Ronald Regang (Activist), Indra Siagian (Filmmaker), Helena Kobogauw (Activist & Filmmaker)
.ugb-b808961 hr.ugb-divider__hr{margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important}In recent times, Indonesian elites have been paying more attention to the eastern region of Indonesia, especially through their infrastructure development policy. However, this policy has so far insufficiently recognized the humanitarian problems and social injustices that are faced by those living in the various parts of the region. To address these issues we are holding film screenings that will be followed by a hybrid panel discussion. The first film, Luka Beta Rasa (dir.: Narasi TV, 2020) features how conflict survivors in Maluku are overcoming trauma and pushing for peace. Speaking on behalf of Luka Beta Rasa team, is Amanda Valani from Narasi TV, and Ronald Regang, the film protagonist who is also a former child combatant. The second film Mamapolitan (dir.: Indra Siagian, 2018) is a documentary film which follows how activist Helena Kobogau maintains her identity as a Papuan woman in the midst of racialized violence. Both Kobogau and Siagian will also be speaking at the event.
KAUM Discourse “Feminist Organizing in Indonesia”
Hybrid Panel Discussion
Hosted by Rosalia Engchuan (Anthropologist & Filmmaker)
Guest Speaker : Anindya Restu Viani, Diana Debi Timoria, Lisabona Rahman, Melati Suryodarmo
This panel invites Anindya Restuviani from Jakarta Feminist, Diana Debi Timoria from komunitas SOPAN in Sumba, Lisabona Rahman from Sekolah Pemikiran Perempuan and performance artist Melati Suryodarmo to engage in a discussion around questions of feminist organizing and the multitude of forms and practices it can take. The panelists will give an insight into their practices and organizations and share from their experiences of working in media, activism, grassroots organizing and performance art in both the capital of Jakarta as well as locations outside of the center. The conversation will be moderated by Rosalia Engchuan, an anthropologist and filmmaker who is interested in the historical construction of Asian femininity, and will delve into broader questions of feminist organizing, the various forms that it can take, the day to day microscopic challenges. We will also critically discuss the influence of western dominated ideals of feminism as well as the broader historical structures that influence practices in the everyday.
