WedThis panel brings together hypnotic techno artist and sound meditation facilitator Lucy, psycore and rave veteran !luuli, and sonic explorer and composer Jessica Ekomane. Together, they consider how rituals, substances, and modulating states of consciousness shape their artistic practices. Which philosophical, spiritual, and social traditions inform their work? What are their affordances? How does their work relate to contemporary society, and what effects do they hope to have on and beyond the individual?
Jessica Ekomane[FR/DE]
Jessica Ekomane is a French-born, Berlin-based electronic musician and sound artist. Her practice unfolds around live performances and installations. She creates situations where the sound acts as a transformative element for the space and the audience.
Graham St John[AU]

Lucy[IT]
Lucy is the nom de techno of Italian-born and Berlin-based Luca Mortellaro—producer, DJ, performer, and Stroboscopic Artefacts’ curator. He has made a name for himself as one of the genre’s most exciting and ambitious artists.
