'T.R.A.U.M.A.' is a radio programme hosted by Magda De Santo and Duen Sacchi which invites us to share public cultures created from the diaspora experience and the migration of artists, researchers, curators, activists, writers, creators and workers of the queer/Kuir/Cuir community.

The voices of 'T.R.A.U.M.A.' will take us home and will similarly take us to other possible households. Perhaps even our voices together will be vaguely like that dream community which inhabits Audre Lorde's Encuentros en  la Casa de la Diferencia (Zami: A New Spelling of My Name).

Sacchi - De Santo

We are a couple of writers, visual and scenic artists, sex/gender, non-cisgender norm dissenters. We are researchers, ex-philosophers, teachers and anti-racist activists, trans feminists, migrants from Argentina, living in Barcelona.

Episode 2:Transition into diaspora

Changing skin, home and gender in migratory processes. Testimonies of Trans and negritude femininities in the Spanish State. Legal processes, refuge and survival strategies.

BLACK SURGERY | Steal like an artist’ is an experimental radio programme where Liben Svaart tackles the idea of stealing like an artist applied to music. In this laboratory-programme songs will be composed from scratch using improvisation, creating techniques and experiments.

#04. Reconstruction of a gesture:

In this farewell program, the elements discussed in the previous programs (the plunderphonics, the loop and the pitch-tracker) are used to conduct a live recording of an action in which sound and experimental music are the thread of a score on which to improvise.

‘What would Barbarella do?’, presented by Arrate Hidalgo, is another programme which consonni presents. In this sonic space, the Bilbao feminist science fiction festival co-ordinator and translator Ansible Fest dissects the key topics on current feminism through science fiction. With scalpel in hand, she takes a speculative text and extracts the debate to look for its mutations in other fiction styles and in contemporary feminist thought. She is accompanied by the critic Laura Lazcano in her section dedicated to audiovisual.

Episode 06: Interplanetary Killjoys

In this episode we will be taking a walk along the extra planetary boundaries of humour from fragments of the short story Unpronounceable (Aqueduct Press), by US author Susan DiRende. We will also be chatting about humour as a tool through a gender kaleidoscope with author Almijara Barbero Carvajal, co-publisher of the anthology Maldita la gracia (Cerbero), and we will be asking one of her chosen authors, Eva Duncan, why Murcia. From Lazcano’s armchair we will be finding out the relationship between science fiction comedy and sex in European and US films. We will tiptoe through the link between comedy and censorship in the story behind the tale ‘Gu ta gutarrak’ by the Argentinian Magdalena Mouján Otaño, and we will explore how happiness orbits all of this at the hand of feminist killjoy archetype, defined by philosopher Sara Ahmed in her essay The Promise of Happiness (Caja Negra).
