The Ballad of Captain Blackheart

We are honored to welcome Palestinian artist Ayed Arafah as our first State of Water guest in 2024. Ayed’s art has been featured around the world from Cairo to Oslo to exhibits across the United States. (2:30) He became beloved by many folks within our Michigan community during his artist residency at Earthwork Farm several years ago. (4:40) Ayed reflects on his sense of home and how being born and raised in the Dheisheh refugee camp has shaped his life. (7:00) Ayed shares how he engages art as a powerful tool to raise awareness and to create a space of freedom and imagination in the midst of a life lived under occupation and (9:20) poignantly shares about his relationship with water and his own painful disconnection from the nearby seas – living in a reality where he is able to travel and enjoy the Great Lakes but is unable to access the neighboring and culturally significant Red Sea and Mediterranean Sea. (11:30) This sense of disconnection from the sea inspired his moving piece, “Sea Package,” created by sea water sent in bottles to Palestine from all around the world. (19:05) We also get a personal update from Ayed on the horrors of the current situation in his homeland.

Honoring Life

American musician Laraaji is one of new age's most distinctive, prolific, and charismatic artists. Since first gaining exposure in the early '80s after a chance meeting with ambient innovator Brian Eno, who produced the landmark release Ambient 3: Day of Radiance (1980), Laraaji has released countless cassettes and albums, ranging from the mantra-like synth pop of Vision Songs, Vol. 1 (1984) to the extended drones of 1987's Essence/Universe. A master of multiple instruments, Laraaji primarily constructs his lengthy, meditative soundscapes from an electronically altered zither, hammered dulcimer, kalimba, synthesizers, piano, and other instruments, as well as natural sounds and vocals.  Additionally, he has collaborated with several electronic, experimental, rock, and dub musicians, including Japanese dub crew Audio Active (The Way Out Is the Way In, 1995), Bill Laswell (Divination's Sacrifice, 1998), and Philadelphia duo Blues Control (FRKWYS Vol. 8, 2011). In addition to his musical career, he is well known for his Laughter Meditation Workshops.
