Satellite 7: Bergsonist and JWORDS

Join us at Bar Laika for the seventh edition of Satellite, featuring Bergsonist and JWORDS.

Selwa Abd, also known as Bergsonist, is a New York-based artist and musician originally from Morocco. She is the founder of Bizaarbazaar, a music platform and publication where she publishes podcasts and interviews by DJs and producers from around the world. Under the guise of Bergsonist (derived from Deleuze’s Bergsonism), she uses a variety of media to investigate social resonance through divergent conceptual aesthetics (minimalism, techno, music concrete to name a few). Through her work, she explores notions of identity, memory, and social politics.

She has performed at Knockdown Center, Basilica Hudson, Witte De With Center for Contemporary Arts, Parsons The New School for Design, Museum of Fine Arts of Boston, Flux Factory, Issue Project Room, Spectacle Theater, Moogfest, and Brown University. She has released several EPs on labels such as Börft, Styles Upon Styles, Clandestine Records, Optimo, and Where To Now.

Jennifer Hernandez  is an up and coming electronic musician based in New York. Formerly a part of the band Jumanji, she now performs under her solo project JWORDS. Recently, she has appeared on Suzi Analogue’s latest album ZONEZ V.4. She is also a resident at the online radio station Half Moon BK.

Satellite is a monthly experimental music series curated by Sanna Almajedi.
