Sarāb

Sarāb was a two-day festival of experimental electronic music and performance from the Arab worlds, held in Wadi Rum, Jordan in 2019. It is a gathering of experimental sound and dance artists whose work expresses relations to land through performances, sometimes site-specific, that reflect a long trajectory of anti-colonial, anti-capitalist, and anti-patriarchal creation.
