‘When the Night Speaks – صوت اللّيل’ is an unmissable party exploring the cross-sections of sound, rhythm, and story.
In this event, it’s the essential rhythms moving through us that bring us together. The sounds that we know vibrating in our bones. Expect the frequencies of Arabic techno, hip hop, and oldtime classics, to wash over you. Interlaced in the night’s sonic world will be voice recordings of poems and stories by people of SWANA heritage sharing their connection to land in London and back home.
This event precedes When the Land Speaks – صوت الأرض on July 9th, which invites audiences to walk along a trail through Hackney Marshes, exploring what it means to be in dialogue with land and its lifeforce - the plants, their roots, and the breathing soil and their lifeforce that pulsate among us.
