We want to start with some deep listening. Take a minute or so and just listen to the sound of the space you’re in. What do you hear? Traffic? Your refrigerator? Your family moving around your living space? Your own breathing. In the spirit of NYC's 7pm Applause for Essential Workers, and Ann Hamilton's quote "hearing is how we touch at a distance", we invite you to compose a new communal sound-based ritual for a new time of day and community. You can use basic materials around your house or just your body or breath to do this.
