This week, stories about reclaiming public spaces.

Demon Derriere by Azrielle de Vor

Azrielle interviews an absolute icon of the local arts scene here in Sydney. Demon Derriere is a mesmerising performer and host, and the creator of Big Thick Energy. 

Produced by Azrielle de Vor with mentorship from Danni Stewart. It was produced as part of the Community Media Training Organisations’s Audio Ability program.

Audio Ability is currently open for applications for their 2025 cohort, head to www.cmto.org.au to learn more and apply!



Out here by Angelina Mazza

Producer Angelina explores queers reclaiming the hiking trail in New York City. She investigates how the policing of public spaces has made it hard for queer and trans people to access the outdoors. 



Riis Beach by Danni Stewart

During New York Pride last year Danni took their Zoom recorder to Riis Beach.

For generations Queer New Yorkers have come to Riis but it’s a space that is constantly under threat.

This moment in time was contentious for the future of the space as the abandoned hospital building behind it had just been demolished, with property developers and conservative council members eyeing off the space for development.

Produced by Danni Stewart.
