“How do we listen together after genocide? Can sound carry the weight of memory, dissent, and survival? This mix threads guerrilla feminist and queer expressions through layers of noise, static, and fracture, remixing the sonic remnants of techno-dystopian destruction into resonant acts of defiance and care.”
