light lapse - a performance

Activity: Talk or presentation typesOral presentation

Description

Join Maria Sledmere and Kevin Leomo for an evening at Civic House, where they'll present creative output from their recent Project Somnolence residency - expect spoken word, poetry, field recordings, ambience, lying down, dreaming, and somnolent-themed refreshments!

Project Somnolence is a portable lab for encouraging curiosity, reflection and speculative approaches to sleep in the past, present and future. Everyone sleeps and is affected by sleep, but we don’t all sleep the same. Sleep inequalities are associated with differences in class, gender and environmental factors. Project Somnolence utilises methodologies from English, Creative Writing, Music and Psychology to bring fresh perspectives in addressing the urgent and global crisis of sleep.
