| Description |
…You have received an Invitation to be listened. It’s the first part of a four-act plunge that leads you to a place called kosmosomsok. The invitation includes a few guidelines and questions that we hope you will follow and review according to your curiosity and interest. The invitation is the route, the course and directions of which you decide and through which the kosmosomok begins to open. The Invitation is personal… kosmosomsok is a four-act outdoor performative plunge into the Universe and its history. The age of the universe, 13.8 billion years, is impossible to comprehend. Equally difficult is to understand what has happened during that time and how it has shaped humans. How can we as bodily beings experience being part of the Universe that has made us? What can we do to reach and embody its incredibly long periods of time or incomprehensible proportions? Will time be experienced only by transforming it into a place or movement, and locating yourself into them? kosmosomsok is part of Simo Kellokumpu’s artistic post.doctoral project xeno/exo/astrochoreoreadings. |
