Due to its special history, Berlin has always been a city of transformation - politically, socially, culturally, economically. Currently, such a moment of change is again palpable. These experiences are particularly reflected in the city's club culture, which is known and celebrated worldwide.
Today, club culture is seen primarily as an economic and cultural factor. Less often we consider from which social structures club culture emerges, which communities shape it, keep it going and thus also define the social life of the city. For many queer and marginalised people, club culture is not simply a possibility for hedonistic leisure activities, but a social necessity.
We are the collective ( ) s-p-a-c-e and we look at Berlin's club culture from a queer and subcultural perspective. We don’t want to talk about club culture but aim to listen to voices from within the community — from queer club workers, collectives, bookers, DJs, artists, bartenders, bouncers, promoters, technicians, runners and cultural workers.
What defines Berlin's club culture? Who shapes it? What supporting role do queer communities play and why? Who has access and who doesn't? Who benefits? How can club culture remain significant? And how can we create resistant but open places that challenge social, (hetero)normative and capitalist conditions?
We want to ask these and other questions in the Fluidity of Resistance - the podcast about queer club culture in Berlin.

Viele Berliner Clubs und Tanzflächen sind dafür bekannt, dass sie junge und alte Raver miteinander vereinen, doch seit der Pandemie beobachten wir, wie die unterschiedlichen Generationen sich voneinander entfernen. In der dritten Episode von Fluidity of Resistance trifft Host neo auf zwei sehr unterschiedliche Figuren der queeren Berliner Clubkultur. Emi ist im Jahr 2000 geboren und arbeitet mit ihrem Kollektiv Duct Tape als Dragqueen und Host. Jens ist Theaterregisseur, ehemaliger Travestiekünstler und geht seit nun 16 Jahren in seinen Lieblingsclub. In dieser Folge wollen wir über die sogenannte Generational Gap in Berliner Clubs sprechen, also einem Generationskonflikt? Inwiefern hat sich die Crowd in den letzten 20 Jahren verändert? Welche Rolle spielt dabei Social-Media? Und wie gehen junge und ältere Menschen in queerer Clubkultur miteinander um? Welche Herausforderungen stellen sich dabei, wenn das Publikum internationaler und wohlhabender, aber auch diverser in Bezug auf Gender, Sexualität und Race wird?
