On this episode of our In Conversation Series we have invited two formidable friends to share their thoughts on a theme they have been exploring together: Silence and Stillness. Theatrum Mundi founder, sociologist and musician Richard Sennett, and choreographer, lecturer and Theatrum Mundi Fellow, Adesola Akinleye, exchange their impressions on the role of silence and stillness in their own practice, and the ways in which they influence our being in cities.
What do the acts of improvisation, scoring, and designing a city tell us about intentionality, nowness and presence? And how can silence and stillness disrupt, emphasize, or resist a linear narrative in music, dance and architecture?
