Living Room Concept

Angel Dimayuga (they/she) invites you to Living Room Concept an intimate and immersive dwelling that feels like your friend’s home. Over the course of the evening, guests will share, learn, and be fed (with a restaurant delivery by “Angel’s World.” )

The night will feature a sensory soundscape by Miho Hatori, a reading by Fariha Róisín, some of Dimayuga’s favorite clips as well as film screenings by Stephanie Comilang, Maggie Lee, and Andrew Thomas Huang. The films depict the search for a grounded sense of self and belonging through the disparate nature of the third culture experience in the global Asian diaspora.

Embracing the powers of interconnectedness and cross-pollination, Dimayuga invites their community to witness the potential of a world shaped by ancestral knowledge and queer systems of coexistence.

Tales from the Memory Vortex

Access Provision: ASL interpretation

Black Quantum Futurism presents Tales from the Memory Vortex, a two-hour immersive performance event featuring a curated selection of guest poets, musicians, and scholars. This multidisciplinary gathering delves into readings of thought-provoking essays, evocative poems, and performative lectures centered on themes of Black anthropological discoveries, Black temporalities, quantum physics, and the intricate tapestry of African and Black Diasporic time and memory rituals.  Employing a retrocausal framework, Tales from the Memory Vortex spirals backward through time and space to examine our origins and trajectories. 

Cineclub Amora, La Mensajera y Amaru’s Tongue: Daughter

Cineclub Amora invites us to lovingly decompose ourselves in a transfeminist evening of oral tradition, Andean-Amazonian ritual, performative lecture with immigrant translanguage justice, and a warm-up for a dance class facilitated by hostess and messenger Galle. These performances will be complemented by a screening of Amaru’s Tongue: Daughter, a film of matrilineal and trans-species tribute directed by the acclaimed Aymara artist Chuquimamani Condori aka Elysia Crampton Chuquimia with an original score by their sibling Joshua Chuquimia Crampton.

Galle creates an immersive experience, transforming Cineclub Amora in the womb of Cosmic Mother Earth, where the screen is a portal/black hole to other non-linear dimensions, where collaboration is already happening between artists involved, and where interaction with the audience is stimulated by storytelling, dance, and somatic score.

Followed by a Q&A with Chuquimamani Condori and hostess/curator Galle.

One of the great advantages of living in New York City is that we can hear new ideas as they are being created, instead of having to wait years for those books to appear on bookstore shelves. First Mondays allows us to share accomplished writers’ processes as they are happening and gives us an intimate insight into their new work in-progress, long before publication or performances. Join us every first Monday at Performance Space New York for a special opportunity to hear the future.
