Do you like to tread on unsteady ground? Do you enjoy the view from a high-rise building, balancing over a high wire or following the allure of the unknown and uncertain?
This is a podcast as an artistic research endeavour – a piece of PodArt – that will get your head spinning, proposing artworks intertwined with conversations.
Following the pleasures and risks of becoming dizzy, we, artist-researcher duo Ruth Anderwald + Leonhard Grond and curator Sergio Edelsztein, have the immense pleasure of discussing dizziness with brilliant artists, writers, musicians, political scientists, philosophers, historians, mathematicians, urban planners, curators and other thinkers and creatives from Europe, North and South America, South East Asia and the Middle East. We're excited to discuss and learn something unexpected along the way as our guests talk about their ideas of dizziness, uncertainty, unpredictability and anxiety, the generative and destructive potential these states yield in our personal and social lives and environments; eventually, they propose ways of navigating dizziness individually, collectively and with our environment. When can we enjoy getting dizzy? When does it constitute a risk, and what risks are worth taking individually and as a society?
What is your take on dizziness, togetherness, and options for navigating states of dizziness, uncertainty and unpredictability together? Let us know: contact@anderwald-grond.at
Produced in spatial audio, this PodArt is best enjoyed with a high-quality headset.

"What does it mean to actually find oneself removed from an overbearing context, or find yourselves at a loss, or confused and dizzy and dislocated from the world that itself carries a certain order, but one that's apparently life-denying, devastating, and decimating? Dizziness can present a fruitful opening for a potentially generative togetherness and interdependence through dizziness as a rejection of the current order." Natasha Lennard
"Dizziness is very helpful to understand that clarity is an illusion and fake most of the time. But it needs to be searched like wisdom: Clarity is a utopia." Alice Pechriggl
This episode starts with the radio play "Vertiginous. Part II Abdallah" by Dani Gal. This beginning leads us to deliberate on dizziness's political and sociopolitical implications. Here, the dark or "ugly face of dizziness", as Angelos Varvarousis calls it, takes shape. What havoc can dizziness create in a society? How can we shift its potential to the generative and fertile? In search of a better understanding, we time-travel to specific political turning points of the 20th century with historian Ursula Prutsch, and to different geographies, from Austria to Argentia, Brazil, the USA, Korea, and Turkey - considering the liberatory and destructive dynamics of dizziness and the dizzying systems that we enforce and those that are enforced on us.
With contributions by Philippe Narval, Alice Pechriggl, Natascha Lennard, Angelos Varvarousis, Dan Novy, Basak Senova, Ursula Prutsch, Anna Kim, Evdokia Romanova, Yulia Strykovska.
Radio Play Speakers: David Wurawa, Alexei Korolyov, Alix Martin, Ewa Placzyńska.
