With a scientific background in visual and media anthropology, her ideas revolve around the concept of space as a social practice.
Musically, as a dj, performer and curator she shifts between scenes and genres coming with a background in roots and dub, over UK bass related sounds and tekno, to more experimental forms of contemporary electronic and electro-acoustic music. As a performer she is working on her own live noise improvisations and has co-founded the Fem*noise network.
With the ongoing project „Sound System Culture: On the Radical Roots of Rave“, she initiates events in which the audience the audience is actively involved. In her radio show, she invites guests from her network to discuss with her and play their favorite tracks. As a scientist, Eugenia Seriakov also gives lectures, e.g. at the ICTM conference in Lisbon, the Unsafe+Sounds Festival in Vienna, the Goethe University Frankfurt and the Art University Linz. She is currently a PhD candidate at the DFG Emmy Noether Research Group “Sound System Epistemologies: Knowledge Engendered Through Practice”
