Interlude
Funded by the Editorial Board

interlude is an ever-changing formation of people gathering regularly to collectively un—learn and un—mute through listening and sounding practices. Inspired by Pauline Oliveros’ practice and philosophy, these experiences are invitations to explore emancipatory practices through the forces of sound and listening. Our project comes from a place of personal research, curiosity and genuine interest in the exploration of these practices. We are always seeking to approach them in a non-hierarchical way, learning from each other as well as all participants, creating support structures for others to feel held and heard.

If you have an idea for a listening session, share a track/text you’ve been working on, mix some music that is accumulating under your saved favourites, reach us with your propositions.

Our roof out of lego

As kids, we want to reconnect with the primary needs of food, music and dance. In our early days we always wanted to grow up, and the more we grow up the more we feel this nostalgia and want to look back on our childhood.

Listening session #07 - A song is worth a million words

Last season interlude. That was, like, an entire sentence that we somehow built together with nouns and verbs and connective tissue. They were thinking how it was the connective tissue (yes the connective tissue) which it was all about. They were trying out shyly to offer ways of listening. But they could not say the day was over. The business, they thought, was not only unfinished but maybe not done enough. The ears still open. The people, yes all still here, byob, old friend. The thought of seeing each other again. The potentiality still glimmering around. And look, there might be even some new things awaiting you.
