All Dey von Kwaku' Reez' Opoku - Episode 4
This ideal State is functional and transparent, provides welfare benefits to its citizens, but fights off foreigners messing with their vibe. However, this State’s desires are deeply rooted in an attachment to a (fictional) national identity and a resentment towards the Other. This Other is both the “better-off” Other (rich Northern Europeans) and the disenfranchised Other (refugees and migrants). The latter, of course, is the easiest to attack and blame for all the ills of the world. von Danielle Bürgin
Being constantly othered makes it extremely easy for ‘locals’ to be hostile towards you, the “foreign bodies,” and controlled. The modes of control – prisons, ghettos, minoritizing, schooling, policing - are ways to ensure the ascendancy of a nation and its white elite. They often go hand in hand with strategies of internal colonialism, such as segregation, divestment, surveillance, and criminalization, which are both structural and interpersonal. This othering makes it extremely easy to create a void and avoid. They foster insanely cold interactions that allow nothing new
to grow. This episode points fingers at these moments and attempts to devise ways to slowly break down these structures and modes of control.

«Und dann fing das Leben an». Eine biografisch-fotografische Recherche in der Schweiz und der Türkei: In den 1960er Jahren suchten grosse Firmen in der Schweiz günstige Arbeiter*innen. Viele Menschen, auch aus der Türkei, folgten dem Ruf und verliessen ihre vertraute Lebenswelt. Die Zürcher Fotografin Ayse Yavas hat gemeinsam mit der Ethnologin Gaby Fierz die Migrationsgeschichte(n), die ein Stück weit auch ihre eigene ist, recherchiert.
