Performance

Off the Hook

0 upcoming performances in New York

Off the Hook has a second life in New York culture: a long-running, hacker-rooted radio forum hosted by Emmanuel Goldstein that tracks how technology, power, and law collide in everyday life. Broadcast from WBAI in the city and carried online and as a podcast, it helped normalize public, on-air conversations about digital rights well before they became mainstream topics. At Berlin, the title is repurposed for a dance event featuring Sara Zano, drawing a line between systems of control and the body’s own codes. The name lands as a quiet critique of how “freedom” is negotiated.
