anorak studio // Feedback #5
Thinking of publishing as a gathering and “making public,” Feedback pays homage to textual influence, to the conversation between material and immaterial practices, to the work of writers and to the labour of writing itself – as it reflects and refracts beyond the boundaries of artistic disciplines and media. At each event, one writer, one musician, and one visual artist are invited to perform under the impetus of the literary, the poetic, the textual – to speak where their mutual reverb begins, to share language and resonance in a space of reflexivity. The mutually reflexive relationship between live performance and published media is a consistent principle in the work of TABLOID Press – accordingly, each of the five bimonthly Feedback events at soft power are accompanied by a limited-edition publication collecting works of the invited artists.

Lyra Pramuk, Berlin-based, American multidisciplinary artist. Compelled by collectivity, spirituality, consciousness and care, she has conceived a unique form of devotional music. Exploring the ecstatic genesis of sacred ritual practices, Lyra draws from folk, house, techno, gospel and her formal classical education.
The Neighbourhood Character, DJ, cultural writer, and strategist moving quietly between worlds. They bring a thoughtful, grounded perspective to their practice, navigating the intersections of creative expression and everyday life.
Liola Mattheis, poet and theorist based in Berlin. In both her academic and literary work, she engages with natural history, accumulation, and sexuality. Her poetic practice playfully leans on formalist approaches and is driven by abstraction.

The anorak studio series invites artists based in or passing through Berlin to experiment and share ideas with peers and the wider public. It serves as a communal space for live events that push against creative and formal limitations such as genre, canon, authorship, expertise, coherence, and censorship.
The Social Life of Film is self-organised and a community effort. Running without funding, it relies on the volunteer labour of its participants.
