Decolonizing the Dancefloor: Music Praxis of the Underground
Uganda, Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, Poland, Germany
How does underground music speak to localized experiences and identities? What does music-making sound and look like before it’s commercialized? I will make, listen and dance with underground experimental electronic musicians to understand how they challenge musical conventions to counter exoticism and create spaces of belonging.
