Acknowledgements:
The editors would like to thank the Kulturstiftung des Bundes (German Federal Cultural Foundation) for supporting transmediale as a cultural institution of excellence since 2004, and in particular, for their support of the festival you’re doing amazing sweetie, in 2024. Thanks are also to be extended to the entire transmediale team and the networks of friends and partners who support us in the endeavour to continue producing the transmediale journal: the text Studying Listening with Farida Amadou by dejana sekulić and dubravka sekulić was made in the framework of an editorial fellowship programme funded by Wallonie-Bruxelles International; Nicolás Jaar’s The Ear of the Storm and Emele Ugavule’s Telling Truths During the Climate Crisis were produced in the framework of the collaboration between CTM and transmediale festivals for the co-production of Oceanic Refractions (created and founded by AM Kanngieser and Mere Nailatikau), with the support of the Hauptstadtkulturfonds (German Capital Culture Fonds). The three remaining texts, Jaakko Pallasvuo’s Navel Gazing, Shaka McGlotten’s Vibe is Floating Sideways, and Su Yu Hsin’s Water: A Geoarchive, were produced in the framework of cooperation between transmediale and Beta festival, Dublin, which was funded by the Arts Council of Ireland International Residency Initiatives Scheme. And our deepest gratitude to each contributor for trusting us with their words and images.
