Waterloo - Auditoria

Bani Haykal's Project in Auditoria: Bedok Mengamok

• "monuments of resistance, rejecting norms, totems of offline communication, musical encryption and harbingers of peril, technology of refusal that wants to be witnessed"
• excerpts of the spoken text is taken from Abdalrahman Kittana’s essay, Gaza Uninhabitable: Challenging Colonial Frames of Erasure (2025), published on Al-Shabaka

MBS - Another world is possible

• explores technology through a science-fiction-like lens, where most narratives are focused on the way humans are using and interacting with technology and not really what technology itself can achieve
• celebrates afrofuturism that explores African diaspora culture and its intersections with technology - speculative fiction

Scape - 9pm drag show

Genuinely my first drag and fashion show irl - enjoyed the performances and the drag culture that felt welcoming even as an audience member

• my favorite piece: "the bloody dress" (i made that name up) - King Mizrahi's work intended to reimagine conventional and traditional clothing by incorporating them into apparel of our present era #rejectingnorms
