Manitoba Prisoner Solidarity Network and Hip Hop 101 have been collaborating to bring panels to listeners who are incarcerated. 

This panel is all about Gladue reports — from their history, to common misconceptions, to jurisdictional disparities. We hear from Nii Gaanii Asin, a pilot project that provides Gladue reports and post-sentence cultural and spiritual support. 

Panelists from Nii Gaanii Asin include Quinn Saretsky, Quentin Bird, Brittany Wolf, Jerica Hogarth, and Marc Kruse. The panel is moderated by Merissa Daborn.

YATTA is an interdisciplinary artist and musician. They use incantations born of loop pedal drones, channeled screams, and improvised poetry to explore connections between psychosis, prayer, and presence. Last year, they released their sophomore album WAHALA, via NYC imprint PTP, in conjunction with a self-written/directed theatrical production called An Episode: Ricky’s Room, commissioned by The Shed. This year, they released ‘Dial Up’, a collaborative album with Philly poet and musician, Moor Mother. YATTA has shared the stage with musicians like Cardi B, William Basinski, and The Sun Ra Arkestra, creating multimedia performances that tour nationally and globally.

do we need to remember that fire is where transformation happens?

gospel comes on the other side of fire / checkpoints repeatedly stop our procession to dirt jobs in burning fields where doves fly out of bent bodies / dreams are our only reprieve and tricks are power / fear falls like a head into tired palms and a heron swoops down to wink

Von Calhau!, born 2006, Porto. It’s all work developed by Marta Ângela and João Alves. The duo’s work has been presented in the recognizable forms of music, text, visual arts, performance, among others. Their presentations include Oximoroboro and Volta Subicida in Culturgest in 2015, Rotornariz in Galeria Pedro Alfacinha in 2016, the year in which they released Ú, via the Belgian publisher Kraak.

This album has been presented in venues such as Cafe Oto, De Player or in the LAFMS Uncanny Valley Festival. In 2017 they presented the performance, Tau-Tau, within the programme of the BO.CA Biennial, that was re-presented at Sesc Pompeia in São Paulo, in the Videobrasil Festival. In January 2018 they presented the exhibition/performance, Phantom Blot Back to Attack at Kunstraum in London and the performance O Praner de Urizar at Serralves Museum, Porto. Between February and May 2019 they were artists in residency at Residency Unlimited in New York. Their last soloshow, Unharias Ratóricas opened in February 2020 at MAAT, Lisbon.

Susanna Hood is a compelling performer, maker and teacher in dance and music and was the artistic director of hum dansoundart from 2000-2013. Beginning her career in 1991 with the Toronto Dance Theatre, independently has performed the works of many Canadian choreographers, composers, and filmmakers. She performs widely as an improviser in dance and music, and has collaborated extensively in theatre as a movement director. Her choreography, compositions, and interdisciplinary collaborations have been presented locally, nationally, and internationally on stage and film since 1991. Her work is marked by a dynamic synthesis of voice and movement, creating intimate, raw and sensual performance work. Awards include the 1998 K.M. Hunter Emerging Artists Award in Dance, 2006 Dora Mavor Moore Award for Outstanding Performance in Dance, and the 2008 Canada Council Victor Martin Lynch-Staunton Award for Outstanding Achievement in the field of Dance. Susanna recently participated in Pilot #2 of the Research Studios at P.A.R.T.S. in Brussels, Belgium, with emphasis on the synergistic relations between dance and music. http://susannahood.ca

Martin Tétreault made his debut as a professional artist in 1985, creating the score for the Opéra-Fête theatre company’s production La tentation de Saint-Antoine. This sound collage was well received, and he continued his experimentation with and on vinyl discs and magnetic tape. In 1988, he emerged from his studio to give his first solo performance, Des disques et un couteau. On the advice of composer André Duchesne, he was soon drafted into the collective Ambiances Magnétiques, where he contaminated—and was contaminated by—the likes of Michel F. Côté, René Lussier, Jean Derome, Diane Labrosse and other brilliant Montreal- based improvisers. During the 1990s, his concert and studio performances were recorded by Hélène Prévost and Mario Gauthier, producers with Radio-Canada’s late, lamented Chaîne culturelle network. During the same period, Tétreault encountered distributors and musicians both at home and on his travels, developing fruitful collaborations with the Festival international de musique actuelle de Victoriaville (FIMAV), the London Musical Collective (LMC) (England), the Densités festival (France), Angelica (Italy), Club Transmediale (Germany), Otomo Yoshihide, Xavier Charles, Haco, Kevin Drumm, Ignaz Schick, Michel “Away” Langevin and numerous other stimulating producers and musical bricoleurs.

In the first decade of the 21st century, alongside his frequent travels, he discreetly pursued projects as a visual artist, sanding, scraping, cutting out and erasing printed material. Tétreault refuses to believe in a hierarchy of objects, taking the same pleasure and employing the same rigorous methods whether altering an advertisement for bath towels or a treatise on the history of the visual arts. Between 1998 and 2012, he created the exhibitions 1998, R _ _ G O, Prises de son : couleurs et animées, and Phonographes vinylisés. In 2004, at the request of choreographer Lynda Gaudreau, he developed a system of musical notation and playable surfaces; this then led him to form the Quatuor de tourne-disques (turntable quartet), which has performed concerts and recorded Points, lignes avec haut-parleurs on the ORAL label. His affinities for dance have continued of late, with works created for Ce n’est pas la fin du monde (Sylvain Émard Danse) and Symphonie dramatique (Hélène Blackburn for Cas public).

Marja Ahti (b. 1981) is a Swedish-Finnish composer and sound artist based in Turku, Finland. Ahti works with field recordings and other acoustic sound material combined with synthesizers and electronic feedback in order to find the space where these sounds start to communicate. She makes music that rides on waves of slowly warping harmonies and mutating textures – rough edged, yet precise compositions, rich in detail. Ahti has presented her music in many different contexts around Europe, in Japan and the United States. She is currently active in the duo Ahti & Ahti with her partner Niko-Matti Ahti and in the artist/organizer collective Himera.

We pay tribute to our friend and comrade Mitch Podolak, who sadly passed away yesterday. Mitch was a true visionary in every sense of the world and was the driving force behind the formation of the Winnipeg Folk Festival. He also went on to help form the Van­cou­ver Folk Fes­ti­val and played a hand in cre­at­ing the folk fests in Cal­gary and Edmon­ton. As if those weren’t enough fes­ti­vals, Mitch also co-found­ed the Winnnipeg Inter­na­tion­al Chil­dren’s Fes­ti­val and was instru­men­tal in the found­ing of the West End Cul­tur­al Cen­tre, cer­tain­ly a musi­cal mec­ca in our fair city. He was also the executive Direc­tor of the very success­ful Home Routes concert series and was a friend to musicians, artists, activists and good folks everywhere.

We cherish the time that we got to share with Mitch when he was at UMFM pro­gramming Music Is The Weapon, which was the weekly musical component of the Alert! Radio program. This broadcast features some of our favorite segments from that program.

Rest easy Mitch, you will be missed.
