In this episode of Radyo Bienal, curator, academic, researcher and the recipient of the 6th Keith Haring Arts and Activism Award in 2019, Pelin Tan meets the Istanbul Biennial participants Atıf Akın and Orkan Telhan. Atıf Akın, an artist, designer and academic who studies science, science history, nature, movementation and their politics, and Orkan Telhan, an artist, designer, researcher and academic who carries interdisciplinary works on social, cultural and environmental responsibilities, talk about the links between technology, arts and politics. Then we listen to sonic fragments from the video series 'The Ring of Fire - The Flame of the Pacific' by artists Irwan Ahmett and Tita Salina. Initiated in 2014, the series focus on aggressive economic policies, exploitation and frequent natural disasters, as rising sea levels threaten livelihoods and habitats in the Pacific rim.
