𝟭𝟰𝟮 𝗘𝗫𝗖𝗘𝗥𝗣𝗧𝗦 𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗦𝗬𝗟𝗩𝗜𝗔 𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗛'𝘀 𝗨𝗡𝗔𝗕𝗥𝗜𝗗𝗚𝗘𝗗 𝗗𝗜𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗦 (𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝟮) [63 min.]

Audio experiment EXCERPTS FROM SYLVIA PLATH's UNABRIDGED DIARIES is a sound journey through mental lands of the poet, transposed and imprinted in sonic improvisations between artists/musicians Lena Kocisova (Akkamiau) and Sarah Martinus. Lena and Sarah, both residing in Berlin, are active members of female:pressure,  the international creative community. 

Together we invite you on this sound journey: hoping the insights, trials and tribulations of the honest accounts from Sylvia’s life allow you to explore the deep and creative energy of what is female within all of us.

Selected chapters are narrated by Sarah and accompanying soundscapes originate from collaborative improvisations between the artists. The first part features two tracks, Perhaps by akkamiau and Broke by Sarah Martinus. The soundtrack in complete was compiled and produced by Akkamiau and credits for the graphics go to Sarah Martinus.

Kot aktivna clanica female:pressure globalne ekipe zenskih umetnic elektronske glasbe v tem setu predstavljam izkljucno zenske ustvarjalke zmiksane z lastno produkcijo. Pred leti se slisala, da sem ocitno v prvi vrsti avditorec in sem definitivno agnostik, zato svoj prosti cas posvecam taksnim in drugacnim poklonom danasnjim umetnikom, napredku in znanosti. Intro komad je posvecen teoriji vesolja, ki jo je postavil Nikola Tesla in jo vsekakor podpiram v celoti: "Ce hocemo razumeti vesolje, moramo razumeti energijo, vibracijo in frekvenco!"

1. Statistics about the Music Industry Reality

When wide access to something is restricted to specific groups of individuals, a lack of diversity arises, and an exclusionary system is developed. People in the music industry rely greatly on publicity, praise, and opportunity to further their careers. To do so, the individual must receive acknowledgment from those in positions of influence within a certain field, which is accomplished through a process of being evaluated in respect to the prevailing culture and its traditions.

The FACTS survey, launched by the female:pressure network in 2013, demonstrates the current state of gender diversity at electronic music festivals. The gender makeup of approximately 400 festival editions from across the world were investigated in the newest edition from 2020, indicating 20.5% female acts, 0.6% non-binary acts, 70.3% male acts, 6.6% gender-mixed acts, and 2.0% undetermined performances. When the survey years were expanded to encompass 2012-2019, entirely female actions accounted for 17.3%, 74% were male, 6.9% were gender-mixed acts, and 1.5% were unidentified. This demonstrates a tiny but significant increase in gender diversity, and the addition of a nonbinary category improves the data for studying inclusivity. Nonetheless, the figures show a significant lack of diversity.

The study “Women in The US Music Industry - Obstacles and Opportunities,” done in 2018 with sponsorship from the Berklee Institute for Creative Entrepreneurship, investigated the overall diversity issue in the music industry. It looked at demographics, employment, and the challenges and opportunities for women in the workplace, demonstrating that women face challenges not only as composers or musical performers, but also in the corporate side of things.

When asked what the largest impediments to their career advancement were, roughly one-third reported gender discrimination, harassment, or abuse.

The respondents were asked if they had been treated differently in the music industry because of their gender, and if their gender had an impact on their work in the music industry. 78% reported being treated differently at work, and 52% thought their gender had an impact on their employment in the music industry. These figures were even higher among women who classified as self-employed or freelancers.

Almost half of respondents expressed they should be more ahead in their career. 44% of white women felt they were falling behind, and 55% of women of color felt the same way. One participant stated that while top-level positions in their organization were 75% male and 25% female, mid- and lower-level positions were 100% female.

Being taken seriously was frequently identified as a struggle for women, as was coping with what they referred to as a "boys' club." Women of color, elderly women, and women with disabilities were recognized to suffer greater challenges.

Race, age, and type of job all influenced how comfortable and supported the women felt at work. Even though most women felt supported at work, white women felt supported nearly 10% more than women of color. Women aged 18 to 24 felt the least at ease, yet the most supported.

Self-employed/freelancers, particularly women in performance, were the least comfortable, whilst those in education and training were the most comfortable.

Regardless of their lack of comfort, 72% of women working in the music industry regarded themselves extremely or moderately satisfied with their primary profession.

Women who had been mentored and had networking opportunities were more likely to earn above $40.000 per year and were happier with their job advancement, making it two instruments for assuring good development.

Over a thousand women who took part in this study advocated for an industry-wide deliberate and active effort to effect change. Among the options given for increasing diversity and inclusion in the music business, among advocacy and leadership, were simply hiring talented women and offering equal opportunity. Essentially, a more diversified sector should aid in the fight against discrimination, abuse, and other systemic concerns.
