FOQL stands for Justyna Banaszczyk – experimental electronic and dance music artist, author of radio dramas, film scores, and video game soundtracks. Her tracks bring to mind IDM and industrial, but their most distinctive feature are complex rhythms and often harsh sounds, constant exploration and contradicting the artist’s own musical identity – a trait that is reflected in her largely improvised live performances.

The WE ARE NOT SAME SAME event highlights the misconception that all Asian countries can be placed under the one umbrella, without regard or respect towards their differences in culture, individuality and history. This event will be spotlighting the implications encircling exotification, sexism, objectification, racism, stereotyping and diaspora. The goal is to create an intersectional feminist platform for people of Asian descent and allies to come together, share experiences, begin discourse and find empowerment.

IN THE DARK DARK ROOM (2017) was shot during an art residency in the depths of an ancient Finnish forest – the site of a pagan bear cult - in the dark winter of 2016.
The work draws on the narrative and thematic elements from the novel Our Little Wooden House In The Forest: exploring ecology, ritual and female sexuality – elements recurring in Siouxzi’s previous work. The soundtrack was created by Rey (at the time using their name assigned at birth) and showcases their ability to create immersive aural worlds using sounds from nature amongst homages to their favourite artists.
