The Mind Culture Podcast (since 2020) is a contemporary knowledge exchange platform in a podcast format. Today, it is an open-source database containing over 30 long episodes – interviews with over 50 guests including artists such as Florentina Holzinger, Chris Haring, Simon Mayer, Soya The Cow and many more. The project is a peek behind the scenes of the performing arts world. It presents unique personal perspectives on arts and art production, discussions about art in crisis and arts politics. The guests come from diverse art genres (contemporary dance, performance, street dance, circus, drag…) and backgrounds (experienced, established, emerging, young, older, native, migrant…). The podcast is nomadic in nature, and thus, takes place in collaboration with various spaces in Vienna (Kulturhaus Brotfabrik, Kunst Haus Wien, MAK).

What about art and culture in the Corona crisis? What does the pandemic mean for cultural workers? What impact has the lockdown had on their work? Cultural workers tell us how they are experiencing the Corona period. Some of them have registered as unemployed, others speak of a “professional ban”. One musician even had to sell his guitar for the Hartz IV needs test. The artists accuse the politicians of forgetting about the cultural sector. They think: Society has a responsibility for art and culture. (in german language)
