Event Description: What does it mean to reclaim rest? How can we imagine and create space to rest? Created by Professor Polk’s Q***r of Color lab Rest. will explore these questions through a night of immersive ambient music, collective listening, meditative visuals, affirmations, and mindfulness. In conversation with Tricia Hersey’s “Rest is Resistance” framework, José Esteban Muñoz’s theorization of Q***r utopia, and other projects, Rest. uses visual/digital sampling, and composition to recover Q***r of Color subjects, reinterpret the archive, and reclaim the power of resting and listening in community. Sandwiches, and tea will be provided by the Works Cafe!
