TRANSMISSIONS Series 3
Programmed by Anne Duffau, Tai Shani and Hana Noorali
March – October 2021

‘In the past year, we have learned that all forms of community are vital in providing mechanisms to support each other through this precarious time’


TRANSMISSIONS
is an online platform that commissions artists to share their work within a classic DIY TV show format. The programme was initiated in the wake of the emerging pandemic by Anne Duffau, Tai Shani and Hana Noorali as a collective means of creative and financial support for the many precarious artists, writers and thinkers who had exhibitions, opportunities and subsequent fees cancelled. It is further produced by Lori E. Allen with Mika Lapid as associate producer.

After a year of mass isolation and an uncertain future ahead, community support is more important than ever. Back for a third season, TRANSMISSIONS will present 6 new episodes in which artists are given full creative control. Each episode will be broadcast via TRANSMISSIONS.tv from March to October 2021.

Episode 4, No Prospects on 16 & 18 June 2021

Are you still looking for love? Are you between the years 2000 and 2021? Are you ready for the algorithm to shape your desire? not/nowhere presents Pratibha Parmar’s Wavelengths (2000) alongside research by Jennifer Martin.

Their mission is to ensure that local artists who use new media in their work can access film and media equipment and acquire the training to use these machines creatively. not/nowhere are committed to Black and POC artists exploring new possibilities for owning the means of production of our work and finding sustainability in their practice. not/nowhere’s additional focus is to provide infrastructural support for artists working in all mediums, and enfranchise people living or working in London to take pleasure in expressing themselves creatively.
