Dawn Chorus

Before the world wakes, the axis shifts. Attendees arrive wrapped in layers, barefoot on cool grass, and move with a loose choreography guided by instinct—not instruction. No performers, no crowd—just shared presence.

A looping field recording system builds slowly: footsteps, breath, rustling fabric, distant birds. This becomes the score. It’s not about being ‘in time,’ but about listening for the pulse that already exists between people.

It’s not meditative in the disciplined sense. It’s meditative in the way a forest feels meditative: not asking you to relax, but letting the space do the work of calming the nervous system once you let go.
