Welcome to the fifth episode of our new podcast series.

Across this series, Gareth K Vile chats to some of the amazing people who make and contribute to our programme: from artists, curators and programmers, to community organisers and social clubs. We'll take a deep dive into exhibitions, gigs, performances and events - exploring the ideas and ethos that underpin our approach to programming and how you can get involved.

In this episode:
- We meet Dmitry Vilensky & Nikolay Oleynikov, two members of Russian art collective Chto Delat, whose collaboration emerged in a performative protest against the militarisation of St Petersburg;
- Helen Wright discusses this year's Scottish Queer International Film Festival, which aims to address questions of religion, race and disability, while creating a welcoming space for queer people.
- János Lang introduces Ando Glaso, an organisation celebrating Roma creativity and presence in Glasgow, and he describes how traveller communities have always been entertainers, picking up and transforming local cultures.
- Tamara Van Strijthem & Kirsty Somerville offer their highlights of this year's Take One Action Film Festival, and talk about the need to balance hard issues with empowerment – inspiring people to take action in their communities.
