rhizome forever party ✿ poncili creación, young boy dancing group, elekhlekha อีเหละเขละขละ, umfang ✿ organized by 29speedway

​On May 9, Rhizome presents a night packed with dynamic, ever-evolving performances alongside NYC-based performance series, 29 Speedway. (post-our yearly benefit dinner!)



​The Rhizome Forever party is simultaneously cybernetic and organic; a reflection of realities possible when gathering bodies, colors, lasers, sensors, screens, and slime. Traversing between sound art, improvisation, and noise by way of cross-genre manipulation, you’ll find glimpses of this night later commodified into smaller, compressed, and digitally consumable forms. However, these acts are best experienced IRL and by a collective audience in their entirety.

​Look out for Puerto Rican experimental puppetry troupe, Poncili Creación, joined by the incredible ensemble consisting of Aliya Ultan, Matt Bent, and Kevin Eichenberger, Swiss collective Young Boy Dancing Group, a group consisting of 2023 Microgrant Recipients, elekhlekha อีเหละเขละขละ will be presenting 'Jitr จิตร: extended gong ensemble', an installation by Laser Days, and a set by the co-founder Discwoman, UMFANG.

​In addition to performances, we’ll have flash tattoos by the iconic Joe George, a setup by the dark-academia-laced Club Chess, along with limited vending from special guests <3 + open bar !!

​Rhizome forever would not be possible without the support of WSA, FWB, and Zora. <33 —
