Description

<p>The world has reached a moment many thought we would never see, the unimaginable horror of of the collapse of nature as we know it, combined with the imaginable and televised horrors of war come together in our imaginations and are twisting together to become some perverse dystopia only large budget Hollywood films fetishise about.</p><p>PAUSE is a symbolic and literal call out to stop in a time when making art seems its most futile and useless, where accelerationist push for an ever sped up entanglement of life and technology without regard for the consequences. What is the point in making art on a dying world where people literally have no interest in saving each other and are only looking to benefit themselves when the collapse happens? PAUSE is also a call for a dream, a human evolutionary dream, it reaches out to the inner depths of anguish and dares to scream and call out for a different world, a different possibility of life, a different possibility of consciousness through and in music. It is not that there is hope, we must rise beyond hope and attach ourselves back into the world-common dream of our non-human ancestors and re-find our path in common with all life. Everything depends on this. Nothing will be left unless we pause.</p>
