İpek Odabaşı is an Istanbul-born, Berlin-based electronic musician, noise artist, experimental DJ, and curator working across experimental music, noise, and improvisation. Her performances bring together samples and field recordings with live sound generated through hardware instruments, no-input mixing board, and modular digital environments for real-time synthesis, signal processing, and transformation. As part of her practice, she develops .PK., a harsh noise project built around the collision of mechanical, electronic, and fragmented sound.
Alongside her artistic practice, Odabaşı is a co-founder of Richten25, an artist-run project space for experimental music and art in Berlin. She is also co-curator of the Neu Berlin Institute of Improvised Music series and coordinator of the A.I.D concert series, contributing to Berlin’s independent experimental and improvised music scene through performance, curation, and collective organization over the years.
POWERSTANZ, Berlin based duo by .PK. and BEEATSZ, combines misuse of playback devices, and feedback circuits to deliver an unpleasant experience on the dancefloor.

A collaborative experimental project by İpek Odabaşı and Axel Dörner, bringing trumpet and electronics into a shared space of live improvisation. Sampling, feedback, synthesis and signal processing continuously reshape the sound, creating a shifting exchange between acoustic and electronic material.
An improvised audio-visual project by Sofia Salvo and İpek Odabaşı on electronics, with Sanja Star on live visuals. The music unfolds unpredictably, blending ambient textures, noise, and drones, while Star’s visuals create a dynamic interplay of color, movement, and abstraction. Using feedback loops and vivid, pulsating forms, the visuals respond in real time to the shifting sonic landscape — an evolving dialogue between sound and image that dissolves the boundaries between noise and light, structure and chaos.

That’s the name of this 5tet formed by Karen Ng, İpek Odabaşı, Sofia Salvo, Mark Ballyk and Jonathan F Horne. How would you pronounce it? The musicians will dive into free improvisation to find multiple answers for one only meaning.
Les Désaccordeuses (Cedrik Fermont, Anaïs Tuerlinckx and İpek Odabaşı) shift spaces and perceptions through their collective interaction. Balancing dusty atmospheres with simmering tension, the trio gently detunes the present moment, navigating a slow drift where fragile textures, subtle transformations and unexpected resonances reveal the beauty of altered realities.

Ipek Odabaşı (.PK.) and Giorgio Alloatti (MOO17) come together through a shared fascination with dismantling sound. Their process seems to revolve around tension, with each artist pushing the other toward more extreme sonic territories. What emerges is a blend of raw feedback and shifting noise. During live performances, their interaction feels like an unpredictable exchange - part collaboration, part confrontation - as they continuously challenge and respond to each other in the moment.
