Stories live between us & move through our ecologies.
The world is alive with stories.
We have been gathering weekly since January 2023;
sharing stories - discovering different versions of stories,
moving through times & cultures,
noticing how the stories are speaking through us & our landscapes.
Odin, the Ravens, the Rocks, Trolls, Witches, Hermes, Mnemosyne, Dionysus, Persephone, Baba Yaga, the frogs, waters, elements & more
have been living, breathing & speaking through us.
There is a sense in which we are
captured by the stories,
the stories are 'doing' something.
Our role is to gather, set the scene, prepare the ground, arrange the bones & notice... to improvise with the other-than-human.
To let rhythms, melodies, stories & images seize us, have their way with us.
To descend with each other & the world to the wyrd places,
where time & space become mushy.
Once upon a time ....... in the distant past & perhaps tomorrow ...
when there was time to simply be together, shoot the breeze
& invite the stories to emerge.......
If you are intrigued ...
send us a message & join us for ....

These sessions are not for everyone.
We aim to spread slowly like oral culture - passed from person to person.
Let us know how you know us & what is drawing you to gather with us...
We offer these sessions as cultural practice & process.
Be prepared to participate.
This is NOT entertainment.
There will be NO 4th wall.
The stories will live through you.
There are no rules.
You may do what ever you need to do to be comfortable.
You do not need to speak or be seen.
You may share thoughts, poetry & art in response.
You may demand the story takes a different path.
You may sleep.
The stories will have there way with you.
We are resisting the normative paradigm of big noting ourselves so you want to hang out with us & give us money.....
We don't know who or what we are......
Come for the stories .......
We are consciously choosing not to engage in
transactional, normative, money games.
We will be gathering whether you join us or not.
We will be gathering whether you give us money or not.
