We visited this year's Open Source Festival in Düsseldorf mini-portraying artists, Open Squares members and visitors. The mini-portraits demonstrate the vitality of the city's music and art scene.
With her upcoming debut solo EP "BiiLINGUAL" German-Iranian singer MADANii turns inward to unpack what it means to reclaim the parts of herself she once tried to hide. It is sung in Farsi and English, emotionally layered, and unapologetically honest. We spoke to the artist about the fire that fuels her, the burden of being misread, and why joy and community are essential to her sound.
