The second episode of Ready-to-Wear, the aairs duo’s contribution to our series, interweaves two points of departure.
The first of these is The Detroit Escalator Company’s track “Gathering Memory”, which begins with an in-situ recording of a directional instruction given to a woman who seems to have lost her way in Detroit.
The second is the opening of “Mammame” by Jean-Claude Gallota and Serge Houpin, a modern ballet that, like an alternative to a Samuel Beckett drama, begins with the fall of a man.

Founder Pavel Durov says tech is meant to set you free Pavel Durov, a billionaire who embraces an all-black wardrobe and is often compared to the character Neo from "the Matrix," funds Telegram through his personal wealth and debt financing. And despite being one of the world's most popular tech companies, Telegram reportedly has only about 30 employees who defer to Durov for most major decisions about the platform. Although some channels have been removed, the curation process is considered opaque and insufficient by analysts. Channels are not fully encrypted, end-to-end. All communications on a Telegram channel can be seen by anyone on the channel and are also visible to Telegram. Telegram may be asked by a government to hand over the communications from a channel. Telegram has a history of standing up to Russian government requests for data, but how comfortable you are relying on that history to predict future behavior is up to you. Because Telegram has this data, it may also be stolen by hackers or leaked by an internal employee. On Telegram’s website, it says that Pavel Durov “supports Telegram financially and ideologically while Nikolai (Duvov)’s input is technological.” Currently, the Telegram team is based in Dubai, having moved around from Berlin, London and Singapore after departing Russia. Meanwhile, the company which owns Telegram is registered in the British Virgin Islands.
