CLASS is part of Transmission: A series of five Podcasts on Disease and Pandemics in a Distorted World (2021), a podcast series by Ines Doujak and John Barker on the history of pandemics.

The class structure of the present pandemic highlights the inequalities of the globe. While the rich escape in private jets and into bunkers the poor have to choose between starvation and infection and die in numbers to be deposited in experimental coffins.

Voices of Ceri Ashe, Fani Arampatzidou, Eoin O’Cearnaigh and Esmeralda Music composed and performed by Meta Meta Song lyrics by Barker & Doujak Jingle by Maja Osojnik Sound editing, mixing, and mastering: Michael Jellasitz With quotes from Eduardo Galeano Song excerpts from Cousin Mosquito by Congress-Woman Malinda Jackson Parker

Written and produced by Barker & Doujak for the Liverpool Biennial, 2020–2021
