Artist and musician Anton Kats presented an Artist Talk taking the form of an open studio and live radio performance.

Taking the form of a Radio Narrowcast, Kats introduced an expanded notion of radio as a social construction of power and a mode in which we can navigate through places and moments of social interaction
