Als onderdeel van de tentoonstelling To Seminar organiseert BAK een reeks performances, lezingen en openbare bijeenkomsten waarin gevraagd wordt hoe leren over, met en door middel van kunst een collectieve praktijk kan worden waarin alternatieve realiteiten voor de hedendaagse, in crises verkerende wereld worden bedacht en in de praktijk gebracht.

Vanuit zijn artistieke promotieonderzoek overdenkt Jeremiah Day de gevolgen van de relatie tussen onderwijs en vrijheid. Als onderwijs met vrijheid te maken heeft – het recht om van mening te verschillen, om anders te denken en anders te handelen – dan is onderwijs simpelweg een zelfverdedigingsmiddel.

In all continents, people have built matriarchal cosmologies sustained by complex rituals. In the advent of main modern religions and after centuries of colonizing invasions, the goddesses of antiquity were suppressed by the patriarchal structures that consolidated our era. However, they found ways to speak to us in the language of patterns, melodies, and poems. This workshop uses the voice as a method to reveal the presence of goddesses.
