SUMMARY:A Message From White Flowers: VOICES Series
DESCRIPTION:White Flowers is a string ensemble that came out of Autophysiopsychic Millennium’s theatrical performance Something Else in the Garden\, based on Dr. Yusef Lateef’s novella\, Night in the Garden of Love.  \nAutophysiopsychic Millennium (APPM) is a Black-led creative research and performance collective that explores\, experiment\, and studies the music philosophy and spiritual works of world-renowned multi-instrumentalist musician\, composer\, author\, visual artist\, professor\, Afro-Futurist\, and Detroit native\, Dr. Yusef Lateef.  \nWhite Flowers integrates musical compositions based on environmental themes and climate consciousness to initiate a cultural discourse around climate change and the importance of addressing it before it’s irreversible. These are themes discussed in Dr. Lateef’s Night in the Garden of Love\, which is set on a dying Earth due to human destruction and corruption. These compositions will engage deep human emotions to connect with climate change issues through a social\, political\, and cultural lens. They will serve as a platform to highlight the gravity of the climate emergency. \nThe lineup of musicians is:  \nLuFuki King Sophia\nAaron Jonah Lewis\nIndira Edwards\nLaina Martin\nAnJelic\nMichael Smith \nVoices is a series of artist-cultivated concerts at The Ark conceived and created by Ann Arbor musician Kyler Wilkins\, AKA vocal looping artist Ki5. The series seeks to expand the representation of Michigan BIPOC artists and audiences at The Ark. Each show\, intentional time will be taken to get to know each artist in the form of brief interviews and musical breaks to have them speak about their journey as musicians and performers with the hope that people in the audience are more connected to and inspired by those voices.
