Description
“Frequencies” is a podcast that explores arts and cultural initiatives that seek to impact and transform communities, near and far. Each episode features the work, voices, and experiences of artists and cultural workers across Europe and beyond. This podcast was created in association with, "Amplify: Make the Future of Europe Yours," a European Parliament-funded project that focuses on bringing underrepresented voices from the cultural and creative sectors into the fold of EU-level policymaking. “Frequencies” lives at the intersection of culture and politics by focusing on the power cultural practises and agents have in nurturing inclusive, open, diverse, fair and democratic societies. Hosted by Maya Weisinger

In this first episode of the series, we visit Italy to explore the recent work of visual artist, Iginio De Luca. For many years De Luca has focused his work on the production of videos, photographic images, and sounds that activate public spaces with bold, satirical actions that aim to interrupt everyday life in order to hold a mirror to the absurdities of current politics. It is largely due to this interplay between political awareness and poetic sensibility that ECCOM decided to reach out t...
