DANCE OF THE COMETS: A Sonic Blessing To Saturate The New Walls Of Sleeping Village And A Swim Around The Cosmos https://www.facebook.com/events/1048727661935156/ Dance of the Comets is a short-story written by Paul Scheerbart. It was originally conceived as a scenario for a ballet, a “dance” toward higher aspirations and a staging of the author's lifelong yearning for a home in the universe.

Scheerbart published a long succession of fantasy novels, articles, and poems between 1889 and his death in 1915, in which he insisted that the universe is far too rich and complex to be comprehended by reason alone. Only naive wonder — the basis of the sublime — could promote the development of higher forms of understanding. Sura and the Side-Pocket Experience opening,,. Gira Dahnee

Join us at the Currency Exchange Café for a special First Monday Jazz event featuring Gira Dahnee.

Gira Dahnee believes that music is a passageway to the metaphysical realm. The conceptual interests of Gira’s work is Afrofuturism: using the past and present to create better futures for people of African descent. Harnessing the concept of feminine goddess power, she discusses sexism, abuse, and uses music as a tool to face and heal from these issues. She also focuses on community development by using music as a force to bring people together regardless of their musical experience.
