I wish I could express everything this year has given/taken/illuminated (I’m sure we all feel this on some level)
Had some adventures - from working with the folks at to create the unhoused anthology as part of Amplify Fellowship to becoming an Proof Fellow and working with the amazingly gifted on sound installations for her beautiful and poignant sculptures for Prospect 6. Getting to be part of the expansive world building of and finishing new recordings with (more on that coming soon)

Its Friday so

this collection of instrumentals is an exploration of spontaneous composition//
spirit work.
It is dedicated to the time I got to spend with Lonnie Holley while Mourning [A] BLKstar was his backing band and meant to be a healing spell for my mother Bobbi Lynn who is suffering from serious complications from Barium sulfate poisoning from an MRI procedure in 2023.

She is the main reason I became an artist and is always after me to make even in the face of her being sick. “You don’t know how much time you have above ground boy”

PREMIERE THIS WEEK 🔥🔥🔥
𝗪𝗘 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗚𝗢𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗢 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗦 by COMPANY CHRISTOPH WINKLER! The choreographic concert looks at the history of the first African space programme in Zambia and how it has been perceived until today.

◾️ APRIL 07 08 09 | 20.00
◾️ APRIL 10 | 18.00
⚡ Tickets via bio

Originally planned as a stage performance, due to the pandemic the company changed the concept in the fall of 2021 and produced video works together with local artists in Uganda and the USA, which set very different accents. The Ugandan contribution, created with choreographer Robert Ssempijja among others, celebrates the spirit of optimism associated with the Space program and locates Mars in its own homeland. In contrast, "Mourning [A] BLKstar" and Symara Johnson's "We are Going to Mars" Suite is a fever dream that opens us up to new fantasies of space travel across formal boundaries.
