Welcome to another iteration of the Monday Breakfast show. This week's episode is structured a little differently due to the station's Radiothon fundraiser, so we're focussed on highlighting the great, radical and independent content 3CR broadcasts. If you enjoy the content heard on both the Monday Breakfast show or at 3CR more broadly, please make a donation to help keep the station on-air for another year. You can donate online here or alternatively call 9419 8377. You can nominate a show of your choosing (ie the Monday Breakfast show) when doing so. 3CR needs to raise $275,000, with each show tasked with its own goal, for the Monday Breakfast show it's $1000. Any donation over $2 is tax-deductible and is much appreciated.This week we hear: Rob speaks with Jackie Turner, Trans activist and founder of the Trans Justice Project about how Trans people are spoken about in the media across so-called Australia, as well as updates on the Trans Justice Project, the importance of solidarity and community within the Trans/LGBTQIA+ Community. Following that we hear a segment from the 18th of March in which Rob spoke to Damien O'Meara about representation of LGBTQI+ people on TV screens and how it's changed since the 1970s. The interview is based on a study published in Sage Journals which revealed the much-needed data surrounding Queer representation within scripted television across so-called Australia over the past two decades. During the interview, Rob dissected the study and the trends it uncovered with one of the study's authors, Damien O'Meara, who is a television production culture researcher completing his PhD at Swinburne University of Technology. His research investigates the influence of production culture processes on gender and sexually diverse representations in Australian scripted television. The interview mentions an article from The Conversation about the study. You can listen to the full conversation here.Next up Rob is joined by Harry, the General Secretary of the Renters and Housing Union. The pair spoke about the fight for housing justice, the portrayal of the housing crisis within the media, and how 3CR platforms diverse voices that are so often missed elsewhere in the media. If you are interested in joining RAHU, click here. The show ends with a segment from the January 29th show in which Rob interviewed Sophie, a legal observer from Melbourne Activist Legal Support about excessive use of force by the police at the Webb Dock Picket. After several days of picketing the Webb Dock to stop a Zim container ship in solidarity with Palestine, the picket was broken up by police using pepper spray and other coercive methods. The Melbourne Activist Legal Support's full statement of concern can be found on their website. You can listen to the full interview here.Songs played: 'Grateful for the heartache' - Simona Castricum'Bury Us' - Outright'Girls' - Vetta Borne'Lion in My Heart' - Aimee Hannan
Acknowledgement of Country// Headlines// We replay a conversation from Hong Kongology where host Katy spoke with Nazanin of Feminista Melbourne about women's rights and activism in Iran. Hong Kongology airs every Thursday on 3CR from 6-7PM.// We listen back to a conversation Inez had with AJ from Melbourne Activist Legal Support in October 2023, which covered points of concern witnessed by legal observers and attendees at the Free Palestine Rally on the 15th of October 2023. This interview also included some tips on how to keep yourself safer at events and actions, an important listen in an era of escalating heightened police surveillance and violence against autonomous activists.// Techno Park resident Lara Week joined us with updates about the campaign to save the homes of residents of Techno Park Drive in Williamstown, who were ordered to leave their homes last year after a decision by Hobsons Bay Council to enforce industrial zoning laws. Lara spoke about the upcoming march to Hobsons Bay Council this Tuesday the 9th of April to stop the mass eviction of families, pensioners and other vulnerable people from their homes at Techno Park.// Joannie from racial justice organisation Democracy in Colour spoke with us about The Migration Amendment (Removal and Other Measures) Bill 2024, which seeks to grant the Minister for Immigration unprecedented new powers, including imposing a travel ban by preventing visa applications from deemed ‘removal concern countries.' If passed into law, the legislation will confront people fleeing persecution, torture and death with a perilous choice: return to a place where they may be harmed or killed, or be detained in prison for refusing to comply with removal. It would also allow the Minister, and future governments, the discriminatory power to prohibit visa applications from entire national populations. Join the snap rally called by Tamil Refugee Council tomorrow, Friday the 5th of April at Flinders Street Steps, protesting the Bill. Follow Democracy in Colour on Instagram for details on how to demand politicians take a stand against this injustice, and to make a submission to the Parliamentary inquiry into the Bill (12th April deadline).// Simona Castricum joins us to speak about her new consultancy practice Design 4 Trans and Gender Diverse, which aims to centre trans and gender diverse placemaking and belonging in spatial design. Challenging the cisheteropatriarchal status quo of built environments, Design 4 Trans and Gender Diverse will use research-led approaches to empower queer and trans communities to actively shape public and civic spaces according to their unique needs and aspirations. Simona is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Melbourne School of Design, University of Melbourne, developing transfeminist methodologies in architectural design, history, and theory.//
This week on 'Radio Architecture with Ilana Razbash', Ilana's special guest is Dr. Simona Castricum. Dr. Simona Castricum is a cross-disciplinary creative and academic from Naarm—Melbourne working on Wurundjeri land of Kulin Nation. Simona engages architecture and music in a speculative ‘world-building' practice to render queer and trans futures. Simona's work gathers gender-nonconforming lived testimony into generous autoethnography and speculative fictions that reimagine relationships between the tactile, virtual, and affective conditions of our shared built environment.
One of Melbourne's leading multi-instrumentalist and electronic musician. She is also known as an architect and a transgender artist. - メルボルンを代表するエレクトロニカ・アーティストのひとりで建築家として、またトランスジェンダーのアーティストとしても知られています。
“Where are the people who are the other in this room? Because actually they have the skills, the capacity, the resilience, the understanding, and also they know where your blind spots are in terms of the way our social structures are set. We need them. They're actually our experts” - Manisha Amin As part of Melbourne Design Week 2023, a panel of design experts examine the crucial role of design in breaking down barriers to social inclusion. Hear from Dr Manisha Amin, CEO of the Centre for Inclusive Design, which advocates for audiences that are often overlooked in the design process; and Simona Castricum, a multi-disciplinary creative and academic whose work explores queer and trans intersections in architecture, music, the public realm and civic life. And, joining halfway through the conversation, Honeycomb Access and Design architect Jenna Cohen shares her knowledge on designing accessible spaces and providing accessibility guidance to the building sector. Together with host Jess Lilley, Triple R broadcaster and co-founder of ethical advertising agency The Open Arms, they discuss the principles of inclusive design and why it is essential to an equitable society, looking beyond the practical and into the broader cultural and socio-political implications of design in our public spaces. This event was part of Melbourne Design Week 2023, an initiative of the Victorian Government in collaboration with the NGV. It was recorded on Wednesday 24 May 2023 at the Wheeler Centre.

Musician and architectural scholar Simona Castricum is sick of talking about gender neutral bathrooms.For many trans and gender diverse people, 'accessible' space purely being defined by those spaces alone is a tired one, and often is forced on those groups alone.So how do our cities support and celebrate the production of gender non conforming space? What would a gender euphoric space feel like?

Simona Castricum is a musician, DJ and producer based in Melbourne, Australia. We caught up to talk about Hugs and Kisses, a night that ran in the 2010s and took advantage of the looser licensing laws that applied to the venue it was based in, which created this wonderful, hedonistic atmosphere reminiscent of the early rave scene. We talked a lot about being safe on the scene and how to create that culture, becoming yourself, and drinking in the street. Oh, and I need to let you know that Simona is probably THE most Australian person that I've ever spoken to, and uses a whole heap of colloquial language, so you may want to familiarise yourself with the terms cooked, hoon, sick, goon and pingers before you listen to the episode! But, then again, it's kind of fun guessing as you go along so I'll leave that decision up to you. Do you have any memories of Hugs and Kisses, or from your own queer scene that you want to share? Well, if you have please get in touch - I want to create the biggest online record of people's memories and stories - go to www.lostspacespodcast.com and find the section 'Share a Lost Space' and tell me what you got up to!

Narrative is a potent source for critical reflection and the dissemination of alternative knowledge and awareness. Narrative possesses a powerful capacity to affect change. And though fiction has been embraced within wider design communities, it continues to hold a peripheral position within mainstream architectural teaching and practice. This one-of-a-kind MTalks explores the role of architecture as storyteller at community levels—considering diverse cultural, LGBTQIA+, gender-nonconforming and age-inclusive narratives. It also considers the individual, including the tales of the architect, the client and the student of architectural design. Reflecting on the ever-evolving role of temporal media possibilities for students and practitioners, this panel interrogated alternative architectural environments—such as screen and online gaming—as a vehicle for rethinking both our spatial surroundings and public space. Listen as Joshua Boggs, Katica Pedisic, Ken Wong, Rachel Hurst, Simona Castricum and Stephanie Liddicoat facilitate a timely discussion that approaches the role of narrative within diverse media platforms as a means to envelope the community, drawing us into more diverse and inclusive architectural and urban encounters.
