Description: In the late 1980's, ACT UP (AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power) defined itself as: "A non-partisan group of individuals united in anger to end the AIDS crisis through direct action."

Series: Transistors
Associated Artists: Elliot Perkins, Jeanne Frémaux, Octex, Oticon, Piece of Shh, PoS, Ultra-red, Unicomplex, Union de Vecinos, Vuneny, WR
Description: Sound artists, electronic musicians and audio activists give a listen to the global struggles of migrants. Like any listening, the one who listens unavoidably enters the field of sound. As the conditions of transnational culture and markets enunciate the transnational artist, that artist bears a distinct relation to migrant histories and politics. The Transistors series of sound projects gives that relation a space to be heard.
