  • In this episode, we invited Milena Dragićević Šešić, the head of the UNESCO Chair on Interculturalism, Art Management and Mediation and former President of the University of Arts, Belgrade to discuss memory in arts and cultural management together with our master’s program student Leila Sahli. Milena has given us a great overview of Memory inside and outside Europe, the impact of memory injustice, the role of cultural management and policies in making a change, and the importance of opening discussions and dialogues about memory.

  • In this episode, we talk about networking, more specifically the role and importance of networking as a career-building tool in the cultural sector.

    Cultural Management Master students of the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre Teele Utt and Anni Leino host former Head of International Projects at Music Estonia, Jaanika Lillemaa has been managing high-level cultural projects for a decade and thus made a significant contribution to the promotion of Estonian culture and arts, both at home and abroad. She has collected her unique blend of cultural management skills and expertise from the French Institute in Estonia as Head of Mission for Cultural and Audiovisual Cooperation, from the Permanent Representation of Estonia to the EU in Brussels as the Counsellor for Cultural Programme, coordinating the official cultural programme of Estonia’s first Presidency of the Council of the EU, from the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra as their Production Manager, and finally from Music Estonia as Head of International Projects. However, after a decade in the field of culture, Jaanika has returned to her academic roots in education sciences and is developing international relations in education and supporting the export of Estonian education services at the Ministry of Education and Research of Estonia.

    Is networking something that should be approached strategically? Moments in the career where networking plays a significant role? The most important official/unofficial networks ( music)? What kind of changes there have been due to COVID in the professional networks? Advice to a young cultural management professional on how to create a diverse network? How could senior arts management professionals give back to the sector? Programs that could help young or not-so-young professionals to get this kind of support/ to expand their networks.

  • Milliseid võimalusi pakub ühine kunstiline tegevus inimestele, kes ehk ei mõista üksteise
    keelt ja muidu ehk omavahel üldse kokku ei puutuks? Arutame, kas sildade loomine eesti ja
    vene rahvusest Eesti elanike vahel läbi muusika, kunsti, tantsu ja miks mitte ka ühiste
    sporditegevuste võiks tuua soovitud tulemusi, et vähendada segregatsiooni. Vahetame mõtteid
    ka juba eksisteerivate ühistegevuste üle, mis on loonud võimaluse eesti ja vene keelt
    kõnelevatel inimestel kultuuri läbi omavahel suhestuda.

    Kultuurikorralduse magistriprogrammi vilistlane Julia Amor on tegelenud kultuuridevahelise kommunikatsiooniga pea kogu oma tööelu jooksul, olgu see avalike suhete või muuseumivaldkonnas, rahvusvahelistes suhetes või kultuuriürituste korraldamise kaudu. Kakskeelse kultuurihuvilisena on tal olnud hea võimalus jälgida ning mõtestada kultuuri kaudu toimivaid lõimumise protsesse.
    Gerli Aet Arras on EMTA kultuurikorralduse magistrant ning seoses oma tööga
    haridusvaldkonnas puutub igapäevaselt kokku nii vene kui eesti keelt kõnelevate noortega.
    Just muusikakooli kontekst on temas tekitanud huvi leida olukordi, kus kahel rahvusgrupil on
    võimalik ületada barjääre ja analüüsida, kuidas sellised suhtlused tekivad.

  • In this episode, the guest speaker Sten-Kristian Saluveer discusses the current situation with modern technologies in the cultural sector, as well as their benefits, drawbacks, and future prospects. The situations with COVID-19 lockdown and war in Ukraine significantly impacted all the life spheres in Europe, not only in terms of CS financing but also in terms of new technologies and approaches getting in demand due to socio-political drastic changes. Modern technologies are one sphere affected the most, as only 3 years ago nobody could imagine even in their bravest dreams the extent to which the opportunities for long-distance work and education opportunities would develop in the nearest future. With these drastic changes, it is important to keep track of the current events that shape our future and stay updated on how the cultural sector is impacted by them, as well as how to make this impact as positive and beneficial as possible. The current situation in the Estonian cultural sector specifically is also discussed.

  • In this our last English episode for spring 2021 we looked at successes and failures and specifically how failures are a resource that lead you towards maturity as an arts manager. Dan talks about how screw-ups never stop because we are always shooting for the stars but you get better at managing them – learning to fail better; Hannele talks about how the soft landing provided by your college and university can be so useful when you are a student so that you can take risks, experiment, fail and learn; and Dragos talks about the importance of the fear of failure as an ever present element that keeps you on your toes and performing to the right standard. He also mentions how important it is to exchange experiences with other professionals in cultural fields and that we are all in this together.

    Hosts are Michael Haagensen and Anna Ranczakowska.

    Guests:
    Dan Renwick – street performer, arts manager, owner manager at Heldeke theatre club and bar
    Hannele Känd – events manager at Estonian Youth Theatre
    Dragos Andrei Cantea – concert pianist, arts manager (based in Norway)

  • KultuuriReflektori hooaja viimases eestikeelses saates vestlevad EMTA vilistlased ning saatejuhid Anna-Liisa Ingver ja Merli Antsmaa sellest, kuidas üldse hooaeg läks - lisaks inspireerivatele külalistele leidus ka huvitavaid apsakaid. Mis olid teemad ja külalised, mis enim kõnetasid ja millest võiks järgnevaid saateid teha, saate kuulata lähemalt. Lisaks jagavad kolm külalist - Raimo Matvere, Liisa Nurmela ja Hannele Känd lugusid millestki, mis läksid veidi untsu, aga olid samas head õppimiskohad.

  • In this episode we invite three guests from different fields of the arts to discuss the issue of the precarity of freelance artists in contemporary Estonia.

    Our guests, Airi Triisberg from the visual arts, Barbara Lehtna from theatre and Siim Tõniste from the world of performance and dance, each have their own experience of this rather problematic issue. In addition to sharing their own experiences, they discuss whether this is an issue that artists should solve themselves, whether they should receive training to help them solve the problem as part of their creative degrees or whether the government should be the one to take the initiative through policies and regulations.

  • Tänases saates keskendume sellisele ametile nagu produtsent. Kes on see kulissidetagune inimene, millised oskused tal olla võiksid ning milliseid üllatusi amet toob? Mida tähendab ideest aruandeni ja kuidas käib produtsendi vasaksirge? Kas produtsendiks sünnitakse? Sellest kõigest räägime saates lähemalt.

    Saatekülalisteks on etenduskunstide produtsent, korraldaja ja koreograaf Heili Lindepuu ning näitleja, TEMUFI produtsent ja Ugala teatri korraldusjuht Silver Kaljula.

    Saadet juhib Eesti Muusika- ja Teatriakadeemia kultuurikorralduse vilistlane Merli Antsmaa.

  • Seekordses taskuhäälingus mõtiskleme erasektori ja kultuuri koostöö üle koos Arvo Pärdi keskuse juhataja Anu Kivilo ja Temnikova & Kasela galerii juhataja Olga Temnikovaga. Mis peitub sõnapaari “kultuuri investeerimine” taga, kas meie ühiskonnas saab rääkida üldse erasektori tasandil kultuuri investeerimisest ja kust otsast alustada, et erasektori kaasata. Milline näeb välja produktiivne suhe kultuuri ja investori vahel? Kust saab alguse kultuuri armastus ja mis on määrav, et kaasata erasektori kultuuri. Saadet juhib EMTA vilistlane Anna-Liisa Ingver

  • Kas kultuur võib veel kriisist võitjana väljuda? Vestleme digitaliseerimisest ja rohepöördest ning muustki, mis kultuurivaldkonnal praegusest ajast võtta ja õppida on.

  • Ohutu sündmuse kontseptsioon on viimase aja valguses saanud täiesti uudse lähenemise. Sündmus vajab lisaks heale sisule ka ohutut ja mugavat keskkonda. Millest oleneb ohutu sündmuse kontseptsioon, mida selleks on vaja ja kuidas on see praegusele ajale vastavalt muutunud? Luubi all on ka publik ja see, kas ja kuidas publik olukorda tajub. Arutleme, mõtiskleme ja uurime seda koos EMTA vilistlase Liisa Nurmelaga, ERSO direktori Kristjan Halliku ja turvafirma Meeskonnast Andre Edinguga. Saadet juhib EMTA vilistlane, Anna-Liisa Ingver.


    Liisa Nurmela on EMTA vilistlane ja kirjutas oma magistritöö: “Külastajate turvatunde tajumine festivali keskkonnas”. Kuid põhitööna pöörleb Liisa filmimaailmas, olles äsja naasnud Göteburgi filmifestivali juurest eestisse.

  • Klassikalise muusika sündmusi ja festivale korraldatakse palju, oluline on aga tegeleda nii olemasoleva kui ka uue publikuga. On selleks eriprojektid, koostööd, koolikülastused või hoopis turunduslik lähenemine - siin on klassikalisel muusikal häid näpunäiteid teistele, aga ka põnevaid õppimiskohti endalgi. Taskuhäälingu külalisteks on Eesti Kontserdi peaprodutsent Maarit Kangron ja Pärnu Linnaorkestri produtsent Andres Tölp. Saadet juhib EMTA vilistlane Merli Antsmaa.

  • Seekordses KultuuriReflektoris arutleme koostöö üle. Millised on koostöö pidurid ja vedurid? Kas konkurents on pärssiv või edasiviiv jõud? Kuidas koostöö aitab kaasa publiku hoidmisele? Juurdleme, kuidas tulla kriisist välja võitjatena ja ehk on COVID andnud meile ka eeliseid? Mõtiskleme koostöö üle nii üksikisikute ja organisatsiooni tasemel, kui ka sektoripõhiselt ja valdkonnaüleselt.

    Saatekülalisteks on Priit Mikk, kes on Euroopa kultuuripealinn Tartu 2024 juht ja EMTA kultuurikorralduse vilistlane, ning Ave Tölpt, kes on varasem Eesti Jazzliidu tegevjuht ning praegune Music Estonia juht.

  • In this rip-roaring episode of KultuuriReflektor we talk to Hannele Känd, Chief Operations Officer at Noorsooteater, and Dan Renwick (aka Dan le Man) performer, manager of Heldeke theatre club and organiser of Tadaa Festival and the Tallinn Fringe Festival.

    Hannele and Dan talk about how they ended up doing what they do and what their thoughts are on programming local versus international acts. We also explore the idea that the performing arts and visual theatre could learn a lot from street theatre in the new conditions forced upon us by the COVID crisis. Hear about how the future is like the wild wild west and whether traditional theatre post-COVID is in danger of becoming more expensive and more elitist.

    Host of the podcast is EAMT alumni Michael Haagensen.

  • 2020. aastal toimus kultuurivaldkonna enda Siiliõppus, kuid päriselt ning kohati valusate õppetundidega. Paljud muutused ja muudatused, mis organiseerimisel ning kultuuri kaugemale viimisel on nüüd tavapärane (hübriidsündmused, videosalvestused etendustest ja kontsertidest, videotuurid), tegid ootamatu tiigrihüppe just pandeemia tõttu. Kui seda poleks juhtunud, oleksid muutused nõudnud rohkem aega ja poleks tekkinud ka nii tugevat survet ja vajadust nende järele. Vaatame, millised on olnud väljakutsed, aga ka väärtuslikud õppimiskohad. Kõik uus ei olegi halb. Podcasti lindistasime jaanuaris, kui 2021. aasta märtsikuu kultuuri kinnipanek ei olnud veel laual, kuid oleme taas situatsioonis, kus kultuurisektor on kinni ning lapsed koolist kaugõppel.
    KultuuriReflektori kolmanda podcasti külalised on Eesti noorsooteatri juht Joonas Tartu ja produtsent, PÖFF Shortsi juht ja Eesti muusika- ja teatriakadeemia kultuurikorralduse vilistlane Grete Nellis. Podcasti saatejuht on EMTA vilistlane Merli Antsmaa.
