i am currently at activation residency, a space baby birthed by me 5 years ago now a fully formed shapeshifting being. no 2 years copied. elia says it has felt life-affirming — rippling through time, water rings — unable to know the entire impact but certain of its life. coyote park says it has felt transformative, leveling through a workshop he facilitated earlier around home both real and imagined. this space does something to people, and the doing is usually whatever is needed. it is wondrous what is possible when folks are given the space to linger.
kyle, our amazing massage therapist, says it has been a slow motion whirlwind, spontaneous happenings on crip time. jj says activation residency is its own season. the most fulfilling experience about this residency is witnessing people’s journey. every person has a different activation, and to be pioneering something so essentially relevant to worlds possible is cosmic timelines. i saw a hilarious meme on instagram that was like, *there are too many spaces, stop making spaces* and while i do agree, i feel for everyone who wants to be here.
Space is the place
