Sara and Darren are back, chatting through a recent film and how it brought up feelings around having your lived experience as a marginalised person "extracted" and coopted from you.

We then hear an interview by Shareeka Helaluddin with artists Victoria Pham and James Nguyen. Ahead of a series of workshops they'll be facilitating at the Sydney Opera House, they chatted about the work they’ve been doing to recover a Vietnamese drum called the Đông Sơn. Hear about how this led to their collaboration exploring ancestral instruments and “breaking the glass cabinet” of museums that take away cultural objects from colonised peoples to enact a deeper and politicised sense of listening. 

RE:TUNING is part of this year’s Antidote festival at the Sydney Opera House on Sunday 11 September. RE:TUNING will take place as multiple sessions across the full day, from 10:30am – 5pm. Register Here. 

During the interview, you hear excerpts from a piece composed by Victoria Pham Nước với đất (Water with earth) 2020, and layers of sound from the Đông Sơn open source library they created.
