Discodesque x Play//time ep10: Luci Smith & Entelechy

Discodesque x Play//Time: Entelechy and Luci Smith. Saturday, November 14th from 7:30 - 10:30pm.

21+ and $15 at the door. 

Live streamed on Twitch. Twitch.tv/discodesque.

Episode 10 is a collaboration between discodesque, Play//Time, Entelechy, and Luci Smith. Play//Time is, "an invitation to slow down and find safety for the parts of us shaped by fear, urgency, and harm. In a society structured by supremacy and constant pressure, many of our nervous systems carry unprocessed trauma that shows up as reactivity, disconnection, and burnout. This gathering understands rest and play as acts of care and responsibility, not escape. By tending to regulation and expanding our capacity, especially for those of us with privilege, we build more room to show up for ourselves and to protect those who are most vulnerable." Playtime is an artistic and spiritual collaboration between Oliver-Moon Lueck and Hailee Salander. The space will include tactile and sculptural elements and opportunity for quiet interaction between human and material. 

Luci Smith and Entelechy will be creating the audio soundscape for the evening. Two separate acts, each using live instruments and hardware as a hybrid-experimental sound offering for the space. 

Luci Smith is a beloved cornerstone of Minneapolis sound and safety. Deeply committed to care within the dance-space, her offerings to the ephemera of space and sound speak encouragement to the visitor to embody the moment, and release. 

Entelechy is a meditative project combining elements of drone, ambient and experimental music, drawing on a background of sound bath performance. Entelechy’s end goal is a fluid traversal of the ambient-dance spectrum, mixing digital and analog instrumentation. Expect resonant instruments like chimes and tongue drums, live sampling and loops, and a contemplative ritual space to release thought and dissolve.

Expect to take your shoes off, exist close to the ground, and be to fully blanketed by this experience.
