Time Based: Sonic Interventions — between Kyiv and Glasgow
In 2024, curator and producer Olya Bekenshtein (Am I Jazz?, Closer) launched Time Based, a platform that explores artistic practices where sound becomes the primary medium.
This year, in partnership with UK-based organization Arts & Parts and creative producer Martel Ollerenshaw, Time Based presented Time Based: Sonic Interventions in Glasgow.
As Ukraine fights for its right to exist, cultural presence is as crucial as security. The festival of experimental music, sound art, and cross-cultural collaboration united Ukrainian and British artists around the theme of sounds beyond human control — from everyday noise to the sonic realities of war.
The event opened a new space for dialogue between Ukraine and the UK, asserting Ukraine’s cultural voice on the global stage. Five new Ukrainian–British works were created especially for the festival, designed to be shared in other contexts.
✨ Around 400 people attended the events in Glasgow.
The festival was held with the support of the British Council's International Collaboration Grants program📝
