This episode was recorded in early July 2023 and features a discussion between Twayna Mayne and a group of sixth form students from one of nearby secondary schools. Before the recording we went for a short walk together, bits of which you’ll hear throughout, and explored some of the environment local to the ICA. Along the way we talked about the ICA’s location on the Mall, the history of the building it’s currently in and how the 2020 show by the American conceptual artist Cameron Rowland’s made links between this and Britain’s wider colonial history.

Artists Lorenza Peragine and Ivana Sehic talk about their project ‘I do this everyday: pass it on’, which encompassed a 30-min public performance with video projection on the streets of Shoreditch, London, and a 4-hour workshop at the ICA in December 2022.
The artists begin by discussing the concepts behind the project: the ‘production of space’ and our response to instrutctions present in a public space. They then read and comment on some of the movement scores devised by the ICA workshop participants. In the last part, they discuss the project in relation to the politics of public spaces in London, and bring examples from their past work with Flock collective and their PhD research.
The project was produced in collaboration between the University of Roehampton, Colégio das Artes Coimbra (Portugal) and the ICA, with support from Santander.

Part 3. Discussions from filmmakers responding to what Legacy Russell’s Glitch Feminism idea and how they use it in their practice.
‘Being a black woman in the world means a lot is expected and asked of you… the place I can set my strongest boundaries is in the digital realm’ ‘Apps like Natural Cycle where suddenly we’re using technology to liberate our bodies from traditional medicine and that in a scewed way maybe is a form of cyber-feminism and enters into that world’Featured short films by artists Salome Asega, Ain Bailey, Anaïs Duplan, Caspar Heinemann, shawné michaelain holloway, Zarina Muhammad, E. Jane, Jenn Nkiru, Tabita Rezaire and Victoria Sin.
Glitch Feminism embraces the causality of 'error' and turns the gloomy implication of 'glitch' on its ear by acknowledging that an error in a social system disturbed by economic, racial, social, sexual, cultural stratification, and the imperialist wrecking-ball of globalization—processes that continue to enact violence on all bodies – may not be 'error' at all, but rather a much-needed erratum.

Part 2. Both Subrin and Syms create narrative works about how women are presented and documented through film and social media.
A Woman, a Part, dir. Elisabeth Subrin, USA 2017 (starts at 17 sec.)
‘I was thinking a lot about performance and what it requires within capitalism to be a person in an economy where you have to perform to survive… I don’t think one can be completely authentic and actually make a living.’‘People don’t change in ninety minutes, I wanted the film to talk about how hard it is to change.’The feature-length narrative debut of filmmaker and artist Elisabeth Subrin. The film is a critique of how women are portrayed in media, the ways in which personal relationships intertwine with and shape the creative process, and the difficulty of change – all set against a gentrifying New York City.
Recorded 7 July 2017.
Incense, Sweaters & Ice, dir. Martine Syms, USA 2017 (starts at 13 min. 11 sec.)
‘Many women are required to perform emotional labour to succeed, or are expected to.’Shot on location in Los Angeles, Chicago and Clarksdale, Mississippi, the new feature-length work by artist Martine Syms travels from the rural South to the Northeast, Midwest and West, following routes of the 20th century Great Migration of African-Americans. This multi-location narrative is never overtly region-specific, yet is psychogeography in origin. Similarly, ambiguous, the camera occupies multiple vantages in the film including WB, the interviewer and the omnipotent observer, serving to chart the ways we document ourselves and the lives of others.

In 2018, the ICA premiered Astra Taylor’s idiosyncratic, philosophical film What Is Democracy?, which spans millennia and continents to deliver an analysis of democracy on a collision course with capitalism. From ancient Athens’ groundbreaking experiment in self-government and capitalism’s roots in medieval Italy, to contemporary Greece grappling with financial collapse and a mounting refugee crisis, and the United States reckoning with rampant racism and growing income inequality, What Is Democracy? confronts today’s profound political and social crises.
The London premiere was followed by a discussion between director Astra Taylor and anthropologist David Graeber, hosted by Charlie Phillips, head of documentaries at the Guardian.

Rapper Che Lingo discusses community, putting the message before the music and how anime shapes his sound, as part of the Town Hall with writer Nicolas Tyrell-Scott.
The Town Hall invites radical purveyors of art for a conversation, to discuss their art, journey, and process illuminating the intersections at large. Centering a dialogue-first approach and pivoting toward London’s unique musical cultures, the series provides commentary on being a multidisciplinary artist in these spaces, unpacking the current artistic, political and cultural moment(s) across London, but also Britain at large.
Hosted by cultural journalist and speaker Nicolas-Tyrell Scott, The Town Hall looks to show artists in their most intimate form provoking intrigue, dialogue, and perspective acting as a conduit of conversation amongst the ICA’s contemporary music programming and allowing attendees to share their voices also.

3-part series on women directors. Three women filmmakers craft stories about migration, survival and community – as Palestinian refugees in Lebanon, Nigerians under a military patriarchy, and Mexicans in LA.
Fadia’s Tree, dir. Sarah Beddington (starts at 7 min. 21 sec.)
‘The trajectory of the birds seemed to be able to reconnect people and place that had been separated and fragmented.’While millions of birds migrate freely in the skies Fadia, a Palestinian refugee in Lebanon, yearns for the ancestral homeland she is denied. She challenges Sarah, the film’s Director, to find an ancient mulberry tree that stands as witness to her family’s existence. Spanning fifteen years, this story of a friendship that stays connected across a divided land and a fragmented people adopts a bird’s eye perspective to reflect on freedom of movement, exile and the hope of return.
Recorded 2 August 2022.
The Supreme Price, dir. Joanna Lipper (starts at 15 min. 22 sec.)
‘You have a lot of useless men in power, why not have a few useless women… let’s get them in there and let’s make it normal.’The Supreme Price is a feature length documentary film that traces the evolution of the Pro-Democracy Movement in Nigeria and efforts to increase the participation of women in leadership roles. Following the annulment of her father's victory in Nigeria's Presidential Election and her mother's assassination by agents of the military dictatorship, Hafsat Abiola faces the challenge of transforming a corrupt culture of governance into a democracy capable of serving Nigeria's most marginalized population: women.
Recorded 17 March 2015.
Mija, dir. Isabel Castro (starts at 20 min. 51 sec.)
‘You carry a lot of pressure when your parents have made sacrifices and regardless of the specificity of your experience… that decision is a difficult and traumatic one and its one that carries implications intergenerationally.’Isabel Castro’s deeply involving debut feature explores community, identity and the American Dream through the eyes of two young women raised by undocumented Mexican immigrants north of the border – the first members of their family to be born in the USA.
Recorded 7 September 2022.
