As Rewire Festival 2022 fills The Hague with cutting-edge music, it also lands at Page Not Found on 8, 9 and 10 April.
RITUAL invites you into an experimental series that explores the many different elements that form a ritual. Rituals, as symbolic acts, represent and pass on the values and orders on which a community is based. While often described as spiritual and transcendent, they equally ground us into our daily lives and help us connect with our surroundings, each other, and ourselves. Through a sequence of collaborations with artists on themes such as Attention, Ceremony, Closure, Connectivity, Resonance and Technology, RITUAL will serve as an entry into collectivity and cohesion.
“We can define rituals as symbolic techniques of making oneself at home in the world. They transform being-in-the-world into a being at home. They turn the world into a reliable place. They are to time what a home is to space: they render time habitable. They even make it accessible, like a house.” – Byung Chul Han, The Disappearance of Rituals: A Topology of the Present.
