Conversation with curator, writer, and researcher ANABELLE LACROIX about the project RADIO INSOMNIA, an all-night broadcast for night communities which is interested in the political and poetic forces of waking at night and asks: What is the potential of listening at night when wakefulness is embraced rather than endured? More info: https://insomnia.radio.fm We talk about the unsettling in the body and mind that keeps us awake; whether artists are especially prone to insomnia, the history of sleeping and sleep regimes, porosity between dreaming and wakefulness, the revolutionary prospect of the night time, and the specific type of listening that is available to us at these eerie hours. Originally broadcast: 9 October 2023 Sympoiesis radio show is produced on the Gadigal land of the Eora nation, traditional custodians of this land. We pay our respect and gratitude to the elders past, present, and yet to come.
