Universal Basic Everything: Excess for Everyone

Sukitoa o Namau is a Moroccan experimental sound artist and researcher. Her background is rooted in contemporary dance, performing arts and visual arts. 

"As a child, I remember being fascinated by when traditional bands started playing during weddings, baptisms and other celebrations and by the body reactions their music triggered. The area I come from is known for Sufi brotherhoods called Issawa and they are systematically booked to perform for these events. I remember women asking people around to hold them as they were scared to go into a trance and lose control in front of everybody. Social pressure in those contexts where everybody is well dressed, behaving themselves, leaves little room for erratic and unpredictable acts.

Their friends or relatives would come, sit around them and hold firmly their hands, legs or any part of their body to control them. When the band started playing, I remember their body shivering, their eyes between two worlds. At some point, some manage to stay in control with the help of the people around and others would just abandon themselves to it.

So my first experience with sound is of how invasive it can be, how it can affect, confuse a body, tear it apart and cause uncontrollable gestures, resulting in a disheveled and sloppy mess. I often heard about this music “dakchi tay dkheli f3dami”, literally meaning “this is penetrating my bones” which is a very deep and powerful way to describe this phenomenon."*
