CTM Festival 2026
CTM 2026 Radio Lab winner Emiddio Vasquez has long shaped Cyprus’s underground scene, blending personal history with research into how sound and technology mold perception and power.
His project "21s" is a radio drama exploring the overlap of militarism and club culture in Ayia Napa, Cyprus, using the idea of the "resonant circuit" to examine how tuning, interference, and noise reveal deeper political and emotional frequencies.
The collaboration between Tohal Kyna and artist Sara Persico fuses raw noise with experimental vocals and electronics. Drawing from industrial minimalism and noise traditions, they sculpt distortion and turbulence into tightly controlled intensity. Persico’s textured layers and Kyna’s forceful sound design create a volatile balance between chaos and precision, turning noise into a charged, emotional language.
The performance is part of CTM’s collaboration with Seoul’s WeSA festival.
