Succinct sounds render audible how the various religious movements make their presence felt through noise, music and rhythm in Rio de Janeiro, Lagos, Beirut, Cairo or Berlin and occupy the city as an auditory space. One significant by-product is new impressive musical styles.

With Adé Bantu (Musician, Lagos), Big Daddy Fresh (MC, Kano), Charalambos Ganotis (Musician, Hamburg), Brian Larkin (Anthropologist, New York), Martijn Oosterbaan (Anthropologist, Utrecht), Protek and Special Agent Snypa (MCs, Lagos).
Moderator: Thomas Burkhalter (Musical Ethnologist, Journalist, Bern)
