Revolution Revolution is a performance work by Gillian Dykeman that harnesses the amazing energies generated in a room of people focusing together on a demanding task. What is the energy of capitalism? What is the energy of revolution? How can we channel our energies to address the urgent environmental concerns of our time? How do we better engineer our energetic outputs to formulate new ways of being…to radically reimagine what it is we’re doing with our lives? Our life-force? Our love?
Presented as part of The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge public programming series, part of The Work of Wind: Air, Land, Sea.
