SGCR PODCASTS: Recent Episodes

Singapore Community Radio

SGCR was founded to elevate the music community in 2017. In 2020, we're taking steps towards a different path. Every Tues-Sat, we'll be bringing you a new programme of shows, all of which forms a mere glimpse into the wider range of creative communities within Singapore. Lock yourselves in for podcasts, livestreams, video shows, guest mixes, editorial features, and other bits of content that we simply couldn't slip into one catagory.

What does a sculpture that pulses, oozes, gushes, and melts look like? Needless to say, what a work is made of influences the sort of impression we have of it. A material-driven process is often a labyrinthian maze — a rabbit hole to burrow down into. Nabilah Nordin’s works can be described as a smorgasbord for the senses. Her sculptures are luscious landscapes, gloopy messes, and spacious caverns all at once. We wrap up the first season of Mushroomed with a conversation with Nabilah Nordin. We speak to Nabilah about her approach to experimentation and failure, and the place of language within her practice.

A question that has surfaced prominently is how will we live alongside or in communion with our non-human counterparts?

For this episode, we speak to Thesupersystem about posthumanism and the different turns the project has taken thus far.
