The Sea is This Way with Dictaphone Group

Dictaphone Group was asked to guest edit the Fall 2013 online edition of ArteEast. Based on ‘This Sea Is Mine’ project (2012), they discussed the issue of access to the sea and public space in several Arab cities. They asked the contribution of activists, artists and researchers from Lebanon, Jordan, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Palestine, with an aim to critically and comparatively open a debate about access to the sea as a social practice and as a right to ‘make and remake our cities’ (Harvey, 2008).

In this panel, entitled ‘The Sea is This Way’, the following contributions will be presented by their authors:

-Sea Narratives from Rashidieh Camp, Dictaphone Group, Lebanon
-The Sea Is This Way, Nuha Innab, Jordan / Palestine
-Warships in the Sea of Al-Raml Al- Janoubi, Ghiath Al Jebawi, Syria
