295, Nicolas Montgermont on sonic environments and challenging the tech infrastructure of hegemony

On this edition of Free City Radio we hear from sound artist and activist Nicolas Montgermont. Nicolas shares reflections on the ways that projects he has worked on aim to challenge the frameworks of hegemony that are expressed through technological infrastructures. Also Nicolas speaks about the dynamics of contemporary art networks and political activism in France, offering a critique on a lack of connection that is in fact needed in the contemporary context of political crisis.
