female:pressure has launched an awareness and solidarity campaign for the cantons of #Rojava (located in northern Syria), where women participate on all levels of decision making and building a new society from scratch, with built-in social, racial and ethnic justice, religious freedom, ecological principles and gender equality. With a series of music, media and sound art to listen, dance and fight to, we would like to send our love and strength to these women and spread a positive message in support of their efforts. INVISIBLE STRINGS Trying to understand what these women have gone through is difficult for a Westerner who has had all the trappings of a plush American life. Yet, there are many circumstances that are unique to women, the chief among them is motherhood. Invisible Strings is an attempt to bring to sound art the emotions, loss, and experiences of motherhood lost, something that joins more women than we would care to discuss, as an attempt to support these women who join together to fight an enemy and protect their families. WORDS - Invisible Strings 2016 Sabrina Pena Young How can you miss a laugh you have never heard? Or shed tears before saying hello? How can you miss someone you never laid eyes on? Or long to embrace a small stranger? How could a difference of a few weeks tear apart your soul? Or the tiniest of unseen beings change your path forever? Invisible strings, cut by the Fates Before a single breath was made Lost to our world forever Were your eyes brown like mine? Did you have my smile? Would you have loved music or art or words? Millions of missing footprints And yours was one of them, My Child. Dedicated to the lost children of our world and Baby Y.

METAL INK SIMEON (Scat) Oh Metal Ink! Metal Ink That's the stuff we're drinking Half oil Half charity Half who knows what? But that's the stuff we're drinking To stay alive No survive Delicious tweaking metalness Trickling down my rusted pipes Organic decaying to so much less Oh Metal Ink That's the stuff we're drinking Half oil Half charity That's the stuff we're drinking (Scat) Oh Metal Ink! But have you seen my sweet Lucinda? Black hair or was it brown? Hell if I can remember it now! Just so high High as the sky Burned red as blood Will I touch your silken face again, Innocent One? I found your doll Under that wall On the horrific Tuesday morning That horrific morning What a Tuesday mourning! What a Tuesday mourning! Want some ink? What do you think? I'm just having a drink A swig A taste of life again! Down the throat and into the zone (Scat) Metal Ink
