Future

First session from 'the wishpond' - a performance taking place during Kulturnat 2021, at Støberiet, under the curation 'Temporary Homes', by Tania K. Ballentine.

The guests entered my circular space to interact with four piles of tarot-decks, picking up a card which we discussed, from where each guest would formulate a wish or a description of something good to put in the four angel bowls. Also the guests formulated future utopian, or dreaming up homes and put the formulations in an angel bowl. During the sessions, and during the night and after, these three tracks / drones / meditations was made, which contains words, atmosphere and wishes for future home(s) from everyone who participated in the ritual, including myself. 

Lyrics for 'wishpond - session 1 - "are we home" :
I already have all the tools I need - græsset under mine fødder - huset er stort, fyldt med luft og kærlighed - vinden blæser i tyltynde gardiner - the grass under my feet - the house is filled with air and love - the wind blows in satin-thin curtains

Temporary Homes/ the wishpond - "are we home"

the air is
grammatically
muddy

the room
is a theatre
of folded septembre air
coded by
repitition & luck
