THE ORCHESTRA OF EXPLOITATION

A score built from lived experience. A sound of dissonance, resistance, and resonance. From fragmented voices to collective resonance. From control to sonic resistance. This one-night performance brings together an experimental orchestra composed of musicians and participants, unfolding as a collective sonic body.

& Guests

The orchestra unfolds as an improvising organism — echoing structures of control while breaking them apart through collective sound. Inspired by the idea of the panopticon (Michel Foucault), where surveillance becomes internalized, this performance asks: What happens when silenced voices become audible? When does dissonance become collective?

The performance is open for participation.

Some materials and performative elements emerge as a continuation of New Operas of Abuse — a participatory FLINTA gathering and performance on the 30th of April at Liebig 12, initiated by Bojana (S) Knežević — carrying voices, fragments, and testimonies into a shared space of listening and transformation. You are invited to enter, contribute, listen, or resonate.
