Listen to CTM 2025 Radio Lab works

Please note that the streams include an introduction in German but are largely sound-based works not requiring knowledge of German.

Listen to »Sonic Forces« by Yara Mekawei. The work is set against the politically charged landscape of Egypt, where borders with Palestine, Libya, and Sudan represent sites of war and refuge. The project delves into the paradox of seeking safety amid deeper personal struggles.

Listen to »Resonant Resilience« by Lynn Nandar Htoo and rEmPiT g0dDe$$, which explores the experiences of individuals displaced by the ongoing political turmoil in Myanmar and the harsh regulations faced by queer communities in Malaysia. The live performace at CTM fused field recordings and electronics with dynamic visual art by Gabriel Htoo and Sarah Hanan.

The CTM Radio Lab is led by CTM Festival and Deutschlandfunk Kultur – Radio Art / Klangkunst in collaboration with Goethe-Institut, ORF musikprotokoll im steirischen herbst, Ö1 Kunstradio, and tekhnē.
