Dead Angles, Missing Links, Building Bridges – A Critical Take on Designathon at Roland: In this Panel discussion we invite a group of experts from different backgrounds to take a critical look at our venue, former Sexkino Roland, and discuss who is represented in our show, and who is not. Our guests ask questions about the responsibility that Designathon as a White organisation holds in creating space for underrepresented communities. And they reflect on visions of more inclusive, diverse, collaborative programs, processes and curations in the future.
Moderation: Bernadette Kolonko
Guests: Silvia Sadzinski, Walesca Frank, Laura Leupi, Lia Zinngrebe, Alisha Dutt Islam
