Delirious Optimism - Museion Occupy
Info
Description
For the opening of the exhibition Nicola L. – I Am The Last Woman Object, Museion celebrates with a special DJ line-up the ecstatic energy of community during OCCUPY Museion – Delirious Optimism.
The event title refers to artist Nicola L., who described her boundless optimism (“delirious optimism”) as the driving force behind her cosmopolitan, activist work and playful resistance against social inequalities.
In the spirit of THE SOFTEST HARD, Museion’s new research series, music becomes a tool for non-violent, transformative activism. The DJ sets by GLITTER55 and Rifugio Amore reflect a sense of transnational belonging and queer-feminist practices. GLITTER55 weaves techno, gqom, jungle breaks, and breakbeats with chaâbi, raï, and Arab popular traditions, often ending with tracks rooted in her North African heritage and samples from the Global South. Rifugio Amore’s sets are highly eclectic and energetic, ranging from world and bass beats to latincore and ghettotech, always driven by a strong queer aesthetic and the aim to amplify voices often marginalized. Immersive visuals by Klimentina Li enhance the experience.
