Pain is built around the untreated voice of Lata Mani reading a chapter from her book, Interleaves. The piece recomposes the text as a sonic experience that sensorially explores and augments its rethinking of pain. Pain is a “musical” composition of generated sounds and field recordings of nature. 

Lata Mani is a writer who occasionally experiments with image and sound. www.latamani.com

Lata Mani Interleaves Auto-Biography

Welcome to our 1st complete podcast -  a 15-minute documentary.

What does a Mexican artist studying space have in common with a former Vietnamese refugee who calls Canada home?  Listen to our audio feature where the journey of space and a fleeing human intersect and we arrive together in one destination: the Empire of Dreams.

We explore human movement which is triggered by fear and hope -- it is a venture into the unknown.

Thanks to artist Nahum Mantra and writer Kim Thuy for their beautiful words and expressions. And to all the participants for their contribution. 

NOTE:  we also took a section of an interview Spencer Wells,  an anthropologist/geneticist with the National Genographic project, did with the Red Cedar Environmental Institute.
