This research seeks to access ancestral knowledge through synchronization: A process of syncing one’s body rhythms with the rhythms of other people, objects, or environments.

Emerging from archival research on different forms of shared Jewish-Muslim rhythm—Uzbeki Shashmaqam music, prayer, agricultural practices, etc.— we explore tap dance, extended vocal techniques, and live mixing to embody specific rhythms and synchronize with the worlds they emerge from.
How do these rhythms from historical moments of Muslim-Jewish conviviality generate different physicalities, states, tensions or intelligences in our bodies? What can these convivial rhythms teach us in a time marked by separation and violence?
We are interested in accessing (on a somatic level) the textures of coexistence in our ancestral worlds and sharing the histories that might help us navigate the increasingly divided culture of today.
