TIME OF MUSIC FESTIVAL

Yarn/Wire makes our Finnish debut at the Time of Music Festival.

This year’s theme of the Time of Music festival, Time Capsules, asks its listeners in the spirit of Andy Warhol; what we would pack in a box from our own time to be preserved for future generations. How do different social challenges shape our future? How do the authors, performers and audience think in this time?

We live in the middle of a polycrisis, where artificial intelligence, climate change and wars have an impact to a change in worlds of values ​​and ways of working. Being in the middle of a storm is often challenging to understand what is actually happening. However, we know that social transitions have always also been interesting times in the field of art.

The festival’s concerts, workshops and discussions form Warhol-like time capsules to send to the future: they create a picture of our concerns and wishes in this time.
