From October 2024 to June 2025 I was a radio resident at Stranded.fm, an Utrecht-based experimental radio platform. During this residency I hosted Romance Utopia, a five-part radio series and another spillover of my ongoing research under the same name, in which I collect, create, and respond to images, texts, and sounds that muster a sense of romantic decomposition or ineptitude.

For each episode of this show, I chose a classic romantic object and let it disintegrate over the course of an hour, hacking into its recognizability by exaggeration, restriction, imitation, and other kitschy tactics.
