As part of Rewire Festival’s context programme revolving around the theme of Inter/relations, Nwando Ebizie presents Ritual Time, an invitation for dreaming, which will take place on Sunday 9th April. A closing ritual that doesn’t close. A garden of circular paths. Nwando Ebizie invites you for a speculative ritual performance-lecture, a whispered work of sonic fiction inspired by Black Atlantic ritual cultures and mythical time. Take your time, get comfortable, and join Nwando in practicing/experiencing forms of ancestral listening and dreaming. To what could have been, and what should have been, and what may possibly be. Ritual Time is inspired by Nwando’s immersive sensory environment Distorted Constellations and her debut album The Swan, which she will perform at Rewire on Saturday April 8 with her band
Inter/relations takes place at Amare, The Grey Space in The Middle, Nieuwe Kerk, and Page Not Found from 6 to 9 April. Situated around its music and performance line-up, Rewire’s context programme aims to provide a space for reflection and to bring the various practices of artists into conversation with one another. Through conversations, listening sessions and assemblies, the programme will tune into entangled environments and sound technologies, while challenging existing borders and linear notions of time.
