SUMMARY:RITUAL CAUSALITY 001
DESCRIPTION:Black Quantum Futurism presents its first 2-hour gallery performance RITUAL CAUSALITY 001 featuring ancient anthropological finds\, African/Black Diasporic time and memory rituals\, and live sound experiments. Experience BQF theorists discovering the first computer in 100bc\, lecturing on Sun Ra synchronicities\, and Quantum Mapping our collective futures. RITUAL CAUSALITY 001 is a retrocausal retrospective starting with the latest BQF work\, ANTI-KY-THE/RA\, then spiraling backwards to the beginning with the NonLocality series. BQF’s first exhibition of works will be a multimedia experience that will include dance\, sound\, projections and speculative literary performances. \nBlack Quantum Futurism is inspired by afrofuturism\, quantum physics\, and African traditions of spatial-temporal consciousness. BQF weaves speculative reality with ritual\, image and sound to present innovative works that offer practical techniques for escaping time loops\, oppression vortexes\, and the digital matrix. \nBQF Collective is an artistic and literary collaboration between Camae Defstar (Rockers!; MMGZ) and Rasheedah Phillips (The AfroFuturist Affair; Metropolarity) which explores the intersections of futurism\, literature\, art\, sound\, creative media\, DIY-aesthetics\, and activism in marginalized communities. Forming in Summer 2014\, the collective has created a number of community-based events\, experimental music project\, several zines\, and an anthology of experimental essays called “Black Quantum Futurism: Theory & Practice Vol. 1\,” which includes visions from other futurist writers and visionaries. www.blackquantumfuturism.tumblr.com /www.blackquantumfuturism.bandcamp.com \nDay #3 Rockers Bbq Weekend #RBW5\n$7-10 requested donation\nCash bar\nLight refreshments\nZines/books/art for sale \nThis event is apart of Rockers BBQ Weekend #RBW5 A 3 day diy festival based in Philadelphia showcasing marginalized artists and artist that create work that speaks out against injustice. \nDAY #1 – AUGUST 14TH – ATONEMENT / ATUNEMENT – THE ART CHURCH\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1112257575456155/ \nDAY #2 – AUGUST 15TH – ROCKERS – LAVA SPACE\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/410789349104259/

SUMMARY:NOWTOPIA
DESCRIPTION:|̿ \͇| |͇̿ ͇̿ ͇̿| \͇ Λ ͇/ ̿ ̿|̿ ̿ |͇̿ ͇̿ ͇̿| |̶̿ ̶̿ ̶̿ ̶̿’ | |̶̿ ̶̿ ̶̿ ̶̿| \nNowtopia is a place\, an existence\, a conciousness. Nowtopia is a constantly moving\, intricate journey\, a swim through nebula\, the wet starstuff of human birth. \nWhile Nowtopia doesn’t have a corporeal place to call home\, it exists nonetheless as tachyon\, flitting through our collective conscious as a memory\, a movement or as hope. On August 28\, we are presenting Nowtopia as an orbital space-station\, a vector and nexus point where star-mapping\, healing\, and flux converge to create warps to other realms. \nOrganized by Chrome City denizens\, conceived at the orbital worshipping point Laser Life\, and realized through collective means via Metropolarity\, Nowtopia is the blueprint vision visor\, the conduit\, the space place where time exists interdimensionally\, never moving — artists exists like super-heroes as vibratory manifestations\, as stories. \nEach artist will set up in a different space\, performing in a flowing “mix”\, trans-imposing visual and kinetic imagery in accompaniment to their sounds. Dancers and movement mages will be present throughout the space. The idea is to provide a temporary autonomous zone\, through art and music\, with a nod towards super-hero bases\, sci-fi academies and temporally autonomous non-localities. \n╔═.♥. ════════════════════════╗\n█▀▄▀█ █▀▀ ▀▀█▀▀ █▀▀█ █▀▀█ █▀▀█ ░░\n█░▀░█ █▀▀ ░░█░░ █▄▄▀ █░░█ █░░█ ▀▀\n▀░░░▀ ▀▀▀ ░░▀░░ ▀░▀▀ ▀▀▀▀ █▀▀▀ ░░  \n█▀▀█ █░░ █▀▀█ █▀▀█ ░▀░ ▀▀█▀▀ █░░█\n█░░█ █░░ █▄▄█ █▄▄▀ ▀█▀ ░░█░░ █▄▄█\n▀▀▀▀ ▀▀▀ ▀░░▀ ▀░▀▀ ▀▀▀ ░░▀░░ ▄▄▄█\n╚══════.♥. ═══════════════════╝ \nFEATURING READINGS BY METROPOLARITY \nRas Mashramani\nRasheedah Phillips\nAlex Smith\nMagus Eighteen \n(effaced from facebook\, find em here:\nhttps://instagram.com/cyborgmemoirs/) \n╔═.♥. ══════════════════════╗\n█▀▄▀█ █▀▀█ █▀▀█ ▀▀█▀▀ ░▀░ █▀▀▄\n█░▀░█ █▄▄█ █▄▄▀ ░░█░░ ▀█▀ █░░█\n▀░░░▀ ▀░░▀ ▀░▀▀ ░░▀░░ ▀▀▀ ▀░░▀  \n█▀▀█ █▀▀ █▀▀ ▀█░█▀ █▀▀ █▀▀ █ █ █\n█░░█ █▀▀ █▀▀ ░█▄█░ █▀▀ ▀▀█ ▀ ▀ ▀\n█▀▀▀ ▀▀▀ ▀▀▀ ░░▀░░ ▀▀▀ ▀▀▀ ▄ ▄ ▄\n╚══════.♥. ═════════════════╝ \nVISUALS BY MARTIN PEEVES \n╔═.♥. ══════════════════╗\n█▀▀ █▀▀█ █░░█ █▀▀▄ ▀▀█▀▀ ░░\n█░░ █░░█ █░░█ █░░█ ░░█░░ ▀▀\n▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀ ░▀▀▀ ▀░░▀ ░░▀░░ ░░  \n█▀▀ █▀▀█ █▀▀ █▀▀ ░▀░ ▀▀█▀▀\n█▀▀ █▄▄▀ █▀▀ █▀▀ ▀█▀ ░░█░░\n▀▀▀ ▀░▀▀ ▀░░ ▀▀▀ ▀▀▀ ░░▀░░\n╚══════.♥. ═════════════╝ \nSOUNDSCAPES BY COUNTERFEIT  \n|̿ \͇| |͇̿ ͇̿ ͇̿| \͇ Λ ͇/ ̿ ̿|̿ ̿ |͇̿ ͇̿ ͇̿| |̶̿ ̶̿ ̶̿ ̶̿’ | |̶̿ ̶̿ ̶̿ ̶̿|c
