Movement Research Festival

Movement Research Festival: Open Source (2005)

In 2005, Margit co-curated the Movement Research Festival with dd dorvilier, koosil-Ja, and Michelle Nagai. The subtitle was Open Source, to match the proposal of projects that opened up various nexuses throughout the city for unusual collaboration and experimental work. The festival was a three-week event that included workshops, performances, installations, workgroups, lectures and discussions live video events and more. The festival took place at venues and homes all around the boroughs of NY, with a festival hub at Chashama (around the corner from Macy’s during Xmas shopping frenzy), and included more than 100 participating artists.

#HonorNativeLand / LANDBACK

The vivid grove respectfully acknowledges living, practicing, and working on the unceded, sacred, and stolen ancestral land of the Chochenyo Ohlone people, who have stewarded this land throughout the generations, land that is colonially known as California—East Bay. To acknowledge the native and indigenous lands is also inextricably to speak about the people, creatures, plants and life-ways that exist altogether in relation. This culture is in no way only rooted in the past, rather is a rich and vibrant part of present and future. Members of these indigenous lands are alive and shaping the communities of this place today. May the land be returned for rematriation and indigenous stewarding for generations to come. It is the commitment of the grove to share time well and in right relation, insofar as this is possible, in reverence and prayer for Landback. This is inextricably linked with abolition, reparations, and a new future now.
