In this edition of Deeper, radical Dutch collective New Emergences discuss their work amplifying voices underrepresented within digital media culture, electronic music and sound art. Curators Semay Wu and Mariëtte Groot (New Emergences) speak with Angeliki Diakrousi and mariëlle verdijk about their individual practices and coming together to reflect on shared storytelling and mythology as ways of organising to offer different perspectives on sea and ports.  The New Emergences Foundation is a Netherlands based platform for amplifying voices underrepresented within digital media culture, electronic music, and sound art. They work towards the acknowledgement, presence and inclusion of women, LGBTQIA+, disabled communities, and people of all other ethnic groups combined.  This talk is part of Deeper, a series of in-depth conversations with artists presenting work elsewhere within the festival, offering a weekly moment to delve beyond the surface of the AND Festival 2021 programme.

Weedweavers by Angeliki Diakrousi and mariëlle verdijk is commissioned and produced by Abandon Normal Devices, curated by New Emergences. Supported using public funding by Arts Council England and Creative Industries Fund Netherlands.
