Manuel Sékou, who operates under the moniker luxxuryproblems is an audio/visual artist whose work is structured through assembling, archiving and confronting fragments of projection and reality.
On this show, he crunched an extraction of current interests in styles of spoken word(s), electroacoustic fragments as well as grounding beat-driven patterns. Edited, stretched and twisted interplays are serving as an unsorted yet cut-up diary of moods. It translates a dialogue of focus and distraction within a season of intense traffic. The layered material aims to slowly shift attentiveness into a state of being in between selective consciousness and doze.

In February 2014, the Ukrainian people ousted pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych, prompting Russia to invade and annex the Crimean peninsula. By the start of April, Pavel Durov had given his notice, with TechCrunch saying at the time that the CEO had resisted pressure to suppress pages criticizing the Russian government. But Kliuchnikov, the Ukranian now in France, said he will use Signal or WhatsApp for sensitive conversations, but questions around privacy on Telegram do not give him pause when it comes to sharing information about the war. You may recall that, back when Facebook started changing WhatsApp’s terms of service, a number of news outlets reported on, and even recommended, switching to Telegram. Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp. Stocks dropped on Friday afternoon, as gains made earlier in the day on hopes for diplomatic progress between Russia and Ukraine turned to losses. Technology stocks were hit particularly hard by higher bond yields. Artem Kliuchnikov and his family fled Ukraine just days before the Russian invasion.
