Tentative Transmits is an ongoing artistic and critical research project conducted by Olivia Berkowicz and Marianna Feher during their residency at the Cité internationale des arts.
Tentative Transmits is a discursive radio platform that investigates memory, solidarity practices and anti-fascist struggles in Central and Eastern Europe. The project attempts to reclaim lost sites, spaces and narratives by transposing notions around the "former East". The research explores archival findings on the Eastern bloc’s transnational and transcultural phenomena to reflect on post-socialist transitions as pluriversal sites of knowledge production.
