do not work yet on mobile devices, try accessing it from a computer to play loops with the keyboard... 😬
On Sunday, April 24th, 2022, despite some concern about the rain, at 12:00 pm, the festival began in Isla Canela Beach Plaza. The activities scheduled for the day were DJ sessions + Open Decks, an open floor musical session, a photo booth, and the MOPA Danza improvisation workshop 'Error Young Vibes'. Several installations were also set up, such as the interactive installation "Olivo sonoro" with musical fragments from the neighborhood, or the exhibition "Historias de Sanjomix", which gathered the work done by students from CEIP San José Obrero. The day was accompanied by a menu that collected flavors from international cuisines of the neighborhood.
Electronic music was provided by RAWA Club, habitual collaborators of Talleres Antropoloops workshops, a collective founded in 2019 by DJ Hidrataccioni (Mexico) and Guacha Sabelo (Uruguay), with the goal of introducing the most avant-garde sounds of Latin American electronic music to the Seville music scene. Alongside RAWA, Bárbara, Lilia, and the rest of the girls from Sanjomix Soundsystem, they spun the tracks they had made in the Banda Sanjomix project.
A collective remix session where attendees could remix their songs live on an interactive dance floor with Eloisa, using their body and movement to create music. The idea was to improvise freely through play and movement, with loops created by Fran and Rubén in real-time based on the public's requests as they took turns performing on stage.
Error is a guided improvisation project. The activity consisted of a brief workshop where participants learned the code that served as a conductor, and on this occasion, we also remixed popular dances. Juan Luis Matilla is a choreographer, dancer, and musician with an extensive artistic career in performing arts, collaborating with us on the movement and body aspect.
Interactive sound installation in the central tree of the square with musical fragments from traditional music of the dominant cultures in the neighborhood, located in the district with the highest migrant population in Seville.
To take the remix to the table, we invited Refrito MC (master chef) to create a tasting menu of dishes from the neighborhood, asking restaurants and cooks from Cerezo to provide representative dishes from collectives living in the barrio. This resulted in a menu that we could enjoy throughout the day.
Kofi de Costa de Marfíl's cook offered Poulet DG, "El Arepazo" Venezuelan restaurant offered Arepa Dominó, Rocio Luque -cook from the neighborhood- prepared spinach with chickpeas, a classic Sevillian dish, Ji Yiang (aka Pepe) made a 3 Delights rice dish, and Jadiya, a Moroccan cook who has been in the barrio for over 30 years, prepared delicious Kefta. There was no siesta.
The attending public could approach to take photos in the neighborhood's photo booth, and we also got to enjoy the "Alborescencia" exhibition, a photographic project by Victoria centered around the students of the 'Banda barrio' project.
