Emboldened by humanityβs accelerating collective shadow integration of the settler-colonial military industrial complex, this 4-hour durational performance writhes through schemata of possible occult praxes: a coagulatio of solarisation*, catastrophic astrology and active extinctionism to obscure - and symbolically subdue - the Right Hand Pathβs dawning, obliterating sunlight into an emancipatory blackness.
* β...black becomes white, white becomes black, the negative becomes positive, and vice versa.β
With trans-temporal, sonic-linguistic contributions from the clew: Kornelia RemΓΈ Klokk & Snorre SjΓΈnΓΈst Henriksen (Supporting Act), Oliver Smith (dmstfctn), Nick Koppenhagen and Joey Essex - as well as featuring audio from an instagram reel upload by Bisan Owda.
