Feministisches Streikradio am 14. Juni
14. Juni 2019: Violette Banner hingen von den Fenstern, die Haare waren violett gefärbt und die violetten Shirts übergestreift. Über eine halbe Millione Menschen haben am feministischen Streiktag für ihre Rechte die Schweizer Strassen eingenommen. Mittendrin: Der Zusammenschluss von Community-Radios, die live vom Tag berichteten. Und nun heisst es, auch für uns, time for the next round!
Am 14. Juni spannen Vertreter:innen von Community-Radios in Basel, Aarau, Bern, Chiasso, Genf, Schaffhausen, Winterthur und Zürich zusammen, um dem Feministischen Streik eine laute FINTA*-Stimme zu verleihen! Ab Mitternacht kapern wir die Sendungen und senden während 24 Stunden ein gemeinsames Spezialprogramm auf den Frequenzen der beteiligten Radios: das Feministische Streikradio.
In über zehn Sprachen von Deutsch über Französisch bis Arabisch hörst du Interviews und Beiträge zu Themen wie tiefe Löhne in Frauenberufen, sexualisierte Gewalt, Gendermedizin oder Frauenrechte im Mittleren Osten. Und obviously wird während diesen 24 Stunden nur Musik von FINTA* Personen gespielt. Zwischen 11:00 Uhr und 22:00 Uhr verlagern wir uns auf den Bundesplatz in Bern und senden live aus dem Sendebus vom Feministischen Streik, übertragen Reden und Konzerte und fühlen mit Schaltungen in verschiedene Regionen der Schweiz dem nationalen Streik auf den Puls. Moderiert wird das Radioprogramm von Sendungsmachenden der beteiligten Radios und weiteren Freiwilligen aus der Medienbranche.
Projektleitung für Radio X: Claire Micallef

Infos zu den Künstler:innen:
KATJA BRUNNER
Katja Brunner (*1991 in Zurich) is a Swiss author who is not afraid to say unpleasant things. Be it the decline of old age, child abuse or grief, she does not reject negative feelings, but sees them as an important part of humanity and her own texts. ‘Katja is a painter of language,’ says director Heike M. Goetze, with whom Brunner has already realised two plays, such as her first play “Von den Beinen zu kurz”, for which she was the youngest winner of the prestigious Mülheim Playwright's Prize in 2013. And “Geister sind auch nur Menschen”, a play from the abyss of lived lives, against the impositions of old age. Brunner also writes audio plays and spoken texts, which she sometimes performs herself: In “Dimension der Tragödie”, from 2021, she speaks to us from a tower about the dead of the pandemic and those left behind. Her works are not about being presented with solutions, but above all about enduring the fact that certain content is ambiguous. Brunner's plays have premiered at the Schauspielhaus Zürich, Schauspiel Köln, Schauspiel Leipzig and the Volksbühne Berlin, among others. Currently Brunner's Shakespeare adaptation, directed by Pinar Karabulut, is running at the Deutsches Theater Berlin, as well as “DIE HAND IST EINSAMER JÄGER” at the Bonn Theatre. She is part of the Zurich collective Rauf, a regulars' table of female* writers from all over Switzerland, which focuses on intergenerational exchange, networking and archive work in memory of forgotten female artists.
DERYA ATAKAN & LAIMA PRIEDITE
Derya Atakan (born in the Bavarian haze of the nineties)
emerges as an opera performer, bringing together the three forces of opera, punk and the sounds of the Levant. Original compositions and opera references in her work serve as an invitation to collective metamorphosis. The absurdity and comedy of human everyday life, as well as the forces of nature, are brought into focus through the soprano voice. The incompatible and opposing elements embrace. Pathos meets irritation, slapstick meets seriousness, and dream meets reality.
For the set „please pronouns my name” Derya teams up with the producer and performer Laima Priedite. Laima`s music is a constant flow where noisy fragments and crystal-clear melodies wrestle to merge into a hypnotic harmony.
Together they present you an eclectic yet decisive sonic journey of opera core.

JULES PETRU
Jules will show an excerpt of their newest productions "Trancestors - on the paths of our queer ancestors". Together with their collaborator and co-performer Aaa Biczysko the two genderfluid performers shed light on the paths of their queer and trans*trailblazers in a ritualistic endeavor that ties our trans liberation struggles to our collective freedom struggles of our tumultuous time. Through movement, sound, and audio fragments the piece captures the raw energy of sacred resistance and conjures the spirits of our trancestors. Common threads between Knecht's exhibition "Home Is A Foreign Place" and the rendition of Trancestors are topics of (be)longing, queer ancestory, the common queer liberation struggle, and the role of the trans*community on the forefront.

FIJI
‘A seductive, dirty, wild story’. ‘A band with its own aesthetic, its own sound, away from the pop label’. ‘Sexy disco beats, solid techno, spherical, even dark synthpop ballads, trance, lascivious electroclash, with a dash of nostalgia’. (Martin Burkhalter, Berner Zeitung, 2019)
