“Measurement as Contrition: Three canons”… or… when people become time and sound becomes clay and rocks and sand and wood and twigs and metals… and suddenly you feel like there is a dome made of air, right there above and under and around you, helping you hear and listen the inside of your thought.

The Labor of Art.The Labor in Art.The Art of Labor.The Art in Labor. This Light… The souls that inhabit the space. Still. The vigilant observing workers, the artists of their craft, continue to keep their watchful eye over their space of work. Now space of and for work(s) of art. Same piece, same performers, same…
Liquid State of Being: LiquidRoom#8
One of the things that definitively makes end of January be awaited anxiously and with excitement is the fact that this is when ICTUS ensemble‘s LiquidRoom often happen (or, at least in my few+ years of experience they do. In Brussels at least. Well… I guess the exact time of their happening, like most of…

The Force of Fure
