“Each time we heard the story we took some of it back, in our mouths, like damp chemicals or pulp + saliva. Then spat it out to fill a hole or make the wall stronger.”
Bhanu Kapil - Pinky Agarwalia: Biography of a Child Saint in Ten Parts
Vibrations become phrases become scores become habits. Repeat until you know them by heart, until meaning disperses into organs and everyone forgets where to locate the beginning. Who are the ones we’re repeating for? What is the ritual but a set of rules and rhymes, shaping relations through repetition?
“Mingling with Againness” is an invitation to engage with the ritualistic as collectivizing moments, forms of passing on knowledge and modes of resistance.
The program encounters concepts of the ritual in it’s various social, political, spiritual and somatic connotations to create impermanent spaces of sharing and togetherness.
