How does video activism challenge dominant power structures? In what ways can video be used in social protests that directly impact the livelihoods of those creating the content? This episode looks at the use of video as an activist tool by practicioners from Turkey who moved to Germany after the Gezi Park protests (2013). 'Vıdeoact: The Use of Video as an Activist Tool of Self-Representation for Turkish Practitioners in Germany', a project by Dr. Şirin Fulya Erensoy, Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellow at Babelsberg Film University since September 2021, supervised by Professor Jens Eder, explores the use of video as a tool of social protest. In conversation with Özlem Sarıyıldız, Video Activist from Turkey, Artist, Filmmaker, Editor, and co-founder of the first web-based video-activist collective from Turkey, KaraHaber, this episode highlights the importance of generating content outside the conventions of mainstream media, creating a collective memory for future generations, as well as the performativity of the practicioners, and its implications for the prospects of social protest. Ultimately, this episode interrogates how academic research can contribute to broadening our understanding of social protest as an audiovisual practice that creates images of protests that ultimately become protest through images.Ultimately, this episode also interrogates how academic research can contribute to broadening our understanding of social protest as an audiovisual practice that creates images of protests that ultimately become protest through images.

A Hurra Hurra podcast special in cooperation with the Bauhaus Study Rooms 2020: How can we use performative design practices in the field of Design Research? Can this be a source of knowledge? In this Episode of Hurra Hurra featuring the Bauhaus Study Rooms Wayra Aguilar, a student from Burg Halle and Aida Herrera Peña talk about Aidas work as a Design Researcher. The performance “checking/ browsing” is developed by Aida in collaboration with Vivien Tauchmann and presented at this year's Bauhaus Studyrooms. #bauhaustudyrooms #designresearch #performance Aida Herrera Peña is a Designer and a Design Researcher. She is currently exploring performative design practices as a source of knowledge production from the perspective of a Colombian industrial designer with a background in dance and performative arts. She studied at Universidad de Bogotá Jorge Tadeo Lozano in Colombia and completed her masters program at Bauhaus Foundation Dessau, Hochschule Anhalt and Humboldt University in Berlin this Year.
