6th Aug marks the anniversary of the A bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. To mark this occasion, I would like to open the film of my performance, Scored in Silence. It is free. vimeo.com/498650205 #hiroshima #atomicbomb #hibakusya #deaf #survivor #oppenheimermovie

@ONCA_Arts @DigitalBrighton Yes I think it’s so important to keep these stories alive, and #Oppenheimer is another door into our past. Scored In Silence is still in touring status, so I’d really love to see it in some venues where this conversation can continue. Thank you for the tag!

All the talk about #Oppenheimer has got us reflecting on when Scored in Silence by @CMinamimura was performed at ONCA as part of @DigitalBrighton back in 2018. This digital artwork tells the stories of the Deaf #Hibakusha - survivors of the atomic bombs dropped in Japan in 1945.

Creativity has been flowing recently as last week we were joined by un.procedure and Nwando Ebizie for their Residencies. Here are some pictures from their Open Sessions (First two images of un.procedure, latter two of Nwando Ebizie's Hildegard: Visions)
