About Gabi: I am a sound and radio artist with a background in poetics and ethnography. Central to my activities are communication, non-hierarchic perspectives and sharing. Datscha Radio started out in my Berlin garden where the garden house then served as a radio studio. Of course, I am a passionate gardener too
