A warm invite to my sonic ritual event in collaboration with
@antiuniversitynow and
@softshadow____ , happening at
@houseofannetta (and also celebrating the end of my residency there! )
The event is free, but limited spots are available - so please book at the link in my bio! At the event I will also publish and sell my first zine, in collaboration with
@m14om14o and
@houseofannetta - so you can take home with you the maps and the stories birthed by them.
About the event:
Exploring the intersection between psychography, spatial justice and ecology, we invite you to our sonic ritual of deep listening and speculative mapping.
Building hope into the bones of the city are a series of maps of a future London, where you will encounter new and re-framed institutions, social centres, symbiotic environments and time keeping technologies. Inspired by solar punk worldbuilding and folk futurism, the maps include and acknowledge the voices, stories and spaces of the non-human, ancestral pathways, shrines and house spirits, whispers from ruins, migration routes, shelters and sanctuaries.
You will travel through them as you listen to a live soundscape of saxophone loops from
@softshadow____ and poetic storytelling from me.
To open the portal to this future timeline, you will be invited at the beginning of the event to join a collective guided journey, where we will use divination and psychogeography prompts to connect, listen and leave offerings to the house. You may use movement, writing, drawing and resting to interpret the prompts - into your own rhythm and according to your desires and needs.
Building hope into the bones of the city invites you to dream architectures of awe, and public spaces collaborating with our creative longings, our sharpest grief and the needs of our deepest vulnerability.
Can't wait to see you there!
