A revolutionary international women’s day!

We are pleased to present the first issue of a new format: Balkan Talks on Paper! This inaugural issue of the publication series focuses on a selection of feminist organisations and researchers/ activists in the former Yugoslavia that are active in the fight against militarisation and gender specific violence—both locally and globally. Next issue with more organisations and individuals active in the struggle to come later this year!

Ruke su vam krvave! - You’ve got blood on your hands! One year after the collapse of the station awning in Novi Sad, which killed 16 people, citizens across Serbia have been protesting daily against corruption, authoritarianism, suppression of independent media and of freedom of speech, and the repression of dissident culture. We invited activists from the students’ movement and cultural workers to shed light on recent developments.

Multimedia Intervention: eeefff
Date: Friday, October 17 · 7 p.m.
Location: ZK/U, Siemensstraße 27, 10551 Berlin
within the “Pluriverse of Peace” conference organized by

This intervention by the artist collective eeefff explores how war, ecological collapse, and colonial infrastructures infiltrate daily life through invisibilized systems. Cyberwarfare, digital mapping, algorithmic assistants, and coded instructions quietly reshape reality, embedding militarization into homes, bodies, and imaginations. Extractivist fairytales, productivity regimes, and even hidden comments in code reveal how violence becomes normalized and stabilized at the infrastructural level.

Moving images based on recently leaked Yandex code – a window into the extractivist machinery of geographies and intimacies – trace how Russia’s colonialism is extending through algorithmic systems and technological platforms. Sound, projection, and embodied action reveal how digital architectures reproduce the logic of control, territorial domination, and resource extraction, creating digital fascism, which fuses imperial violence with technological standardization.

Free entry, limited seats, registration for the Multimedia Intervention at the ZK/U required by October 15.

Attention 💥 We are happy to invite you to the very first edition of the new series Elsewheres!

September 7, 4pm

This opening edition brings together Ambasada and Klimaton for a collective afternoon of cooking, music and encounters. On the table and in the air: shared cooking of Grah (Balkan bean stew), a Baklava workshop with Belma Bešlić-Gál, a concert by LOMA (Adnan Softić & Jons Vukorep), and a Posttraumatic Entertainment DJ set.

LOMA: Punk past and abstract art future, South-Slavic folklore and American noise, love and violence condensed into a massive, unruly body. For the first time in 23 years, they play a concert in Berlin – a sensation! 👉 https://vimeo.com/195951698

Posttraumatic Entertainment DJ performance: A set where genres, categories and borders constantly collapse into each other, until orientation itself dissolves and even the ground beneath your feet becomes irrelevant.

Come spend the afternoon with us – bring your friends, kids, pets – cook, eat, drink, meet, listen, dance, or just enjoy being together.

Elsewheres is part of 20 days of commons, an initiative by with contributions from Lumbung Collective, Gaza Biennale, .project , Ambasada, and more.
In times of budget cuts and redirection of cultural funding, we want to try out formats that rely on community, commons, mutual support and shared responsibility – aiming for new forms of sustainability. If you want to get involved: join us, reach out, become part of it!

Schedule:
– 4 pm — Cooking of Grah
– 5 pm — Baklava workshop
– 8 pm — LOMA concert
– 9 pm — Posttraumatic Entertainment DJ performance
