Shrishti सृष्टि presents anti-imperialist discussion group @ Cross St Music Hall, 28th February 2025

We are dedicated to the promotion of diverse experimental music, embracing improvised, notated, and electronic approaches to music-making.

We acknowledge the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people of the Eastern Kulin Nation on whose lands we live, make, and share music. Sovereignty was never ceded; these lands, waters and skies always were and always will be Aboriginal Country.

anti-imperialist discussion group will incorporate group conversation, free improvisation, lecture/presentation and archival video and audio to explore issues surrounding colonialism. The group discussion element will be based on questions and issues raised in a set of short, relatively accessible readings that are available here: https://drive.google.com/drive...

If you get the chance to read one or two of these texts (or all of them!) before the end, that would be great for facilitating a rich conversation. We will take a short break of 15-20 minutes in the middle of the show, according to the following schedule:

DOORS | 7.30pm
come and enjoy a drink, snack, and a chat!

SET 1 | 8pm
part 1 - how did it all begin? origins of capitalism, decolonial feminism, ecology, and more!
