On the air since 1996, The ffiles is an intersectional feminist media collective grounded in community radio.

The ffiles is committed to validating and disseminating the voices and work of artists who face systemic barriers as a result of their race, sexuality, gender, lifestyle, class, ability. Through their programming, the collective seeks to create space for marginalized artists within the local scene, while mindfully trying to resist processes of tokenization and commodification in their efforts to participate in and contribute to anti-oppressive community networks.

June 11, 2025: Episode with Rodaisun

RO-DAI-SUN is a group moniker and poetry project, that archives the journals of Catherine Machado, Emma Cosgrove, and Iva Čelebić. After meeting in a university reporting class in 2013, the three began collaborating and expanding together into an increasingly creatively charged space. In the interest of creating a place for their work to meet in the physical realm, the first issue of the RODAISUN booklet was published July 2021. Since then, the group has published a monthly issue in print, each one serving as a time capsule for its respective month. Having a private writing practice that becomes shared and public serves to remind that so much of art making stems from the ritual return to the notebook: where feeling is preserved and a personal inventory evolves. The three voices weave together a braid of past, present and future, three sides of a triangle, overlapping, falling into sync, and finishing each other's sentences. Themes of memory, ecology, time, the body, loss, and absurdity paint the collection of street literature which consists of over 50 issues / 700 poems to date. ​​
