We Should All Be Dreaming
WSABD is a concept that focuses on the radical potential of dreaming as a restorative and subversive practice. Situating itself somewhere between a collective think tank, choreographed gathering, a performance and a lecture the project gently invites the participators to spend time together, listen together and dream together.
For the research pavilion at WSABD takes the form of a soft gathering that starts with a talk on decolonial speculative practices and ivolves into discussing and dreaming. WSABD is an ongoing collaboration between choreographer Sonya Lindfors and writer and activist Maryan Abdulkarim who both are interested in radical speculative and decolonial practices.
