MUTANT FREQUENCIES: BROADCASTING CULTURE FROM TBILISI TO BERLIN
This lecture explores Mutant Radio, a DIY community radio project collectively run between Tbilisi and Berlin. Operating at the intersection of art, music, and activism, Mutant Radio functions not only as a broadcasting platform but also as a curatorial and communal space. The session will reflect on the role of radio as both a historical and contemporary tool of resistance, and its potential as an alternative mode of cultural production outside institutional frameworks. Through visuals, sound, and narrative, we will consider questions of curatorship, collective authorship, and cultural sustainability: What does it mean to curate sound rather than objects? What is more valuable today, to preserve culture or to broadcast it? And how can fragile, small-scale infrastructures foster solidarity and resilience in times of political turbulence? 
The lecture will be held by Mariam Otarashvili. 
MUTANT RADIO
Mutant Radio is a community platform for music and culture, streaming everything from mixes and live performances to interviews, talks, and educational shows. It’s a space where artists, DJs, and cultural voices come together to share sounds, ideas, and stories. Home to more than 90 residents and 50 weekly guests, Mutant Radio thrives on collaborations with festivals, labels, record stores, and cultural spaces worldwide. What makes it unique is a fully equipped studio caravan housed at a former electro station in Tbilisi - a bar, cultural venue, and broadcast hub that also hosts events, exhibitions, and workshops. Since April 2025, Mutant Radio has expanded to Berlin with a compact studio, opening fresh connections for local and international communities.
