Civil Twilight: Carving Dreamtime

Activity: Public Engagement and OutreachPublic Events

Description


A workshop on harvesting the benefits of sleep through the ecological arts of poetry and music.

Get your brain sticky in the pumpkin meat of the circadian and
join Kevin Leomo and Maria Sledmere in carving dreamtime as an
expression of creativity and low carbon pleasure. As the nights
draw in and the clocks go back, we’ll be thinking about how
darkness affects mood and slumber.

Civil twilight is the brightest of the three twilight phases,
where stars and planets might be seen in the sky as the sun dips
just below the horizon. By attending to the ‘nocturne’ as a form
in poetry and music, we’ll dwell in the possibilities of liminal
experience for cultivating ecological imaginaries.
