Meeting at Blak Dot, walking around neighbourhood, returning to gallery for talking and making, bringing together Black Quantum Futurism, this mob, Alterity Collective, Still Nomads and Liquid Architecture.

Anthropology of Consciousness brings together fieldsounds gathered through neighbourhood walks and free style poetry to awaken past and future memories. With artists working on country, on stolen country and on borrowed country, this event represents a convergence of interests in decolonisation and diasporic thinking, transformed by collaboration and conversation into soundscapes, publications, poetry; aka tools to create political subjectivity.

This event comes a day after Invasion Day. Because of the significance of this date in Australian history, we wanted to convene a get-together to harness sound and listening in respectful ways. From visiting luminaries who are thinking through their own battles to locals who are working on multiple fronts, the event offers an experimental space to draw on global black quantum methodologies in the processing of ongoing cultural trauma.

The event will be co-facilitated by a range of inspiring thinkers, activists and musicians including Black Quantum Futurism along with this mob, alterity and Still Nomads. Presented by Liquid Architecture.
