Mario José Barrantes Espinoza will be working on EL CANTAR DEL PLAYO OR… A SONG IS A ROSE IS A THORN where he and Pablo Esbert Lilienfeld will navigate through the vast sound-worlds of the plancha genre.
During the past week we had Giulia Deval and Andrea Marazzi in residency, this time joining us through the digital spheres! During their residency they explored three questions:

*How do you use dubbing as a practice of fictiocriticism?
*How do you go back from the creators of knowledge to the non-human elements that made up their thought?
