Muriel Kahwagi works across writing, research, and programming. Her work has appeared in Rusted Radishes, Cold Cuts, and Kalimat. Her first edited volume, The real and imagined histories of sung poetry, supported by the Arab Fund for Arts and Culture, was published in November 2022. Featuring contributions from scholars, artists, and musicians, the project explores the relationship between oral history and the (physical) archive; and the mediation and transmission of memories and folkloric traditions.
