SUMMARY:Screening of Lichens Are The Way\, Czech Center Cinema May 7
DESCRIPTION:Wed May 7 2025 07:00 PM\nCzech Center Cinema\, Bohemian National Hall\, 321 East 73rd Street New York\, NY 10021\n\n\nFresh after its North American premiere at Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival\, this enchanting festival favorite about the world of lichens is coming to the Czech Center New York. Join its director Ondřej Vavrečka and producer Vít Janeček for a screening and live Q&A moderated by Union Docs Executive Artistic Director Christopher Allen.\n\nAbout the film\n\n\n\nThere are nearly twenty thousand species of Lichens. They’ve inhabited Earth for hundreds of millions of years and play a vital role in countless ecosystems. And yet\, lichens are often overlooked. Filmmaker Ondřej Vavrečka turns his lens toward these remarkable organisms with curiosity and care. His perspective—mirrored in the thoughtful dialogue between experts Trevor Goward and Curtis Randall Björk—is both scientific and philosophical. To Vavrečka\, lichens are more than biological forms; they embody a way of being. They suggest that instead of endless growth and reshaping of our surroundings\, we might imagine a world rooted in symbiotic communities where all life holds equal value. More about the film. \nFind out more about the event here and register for the screening here. The event is free.

SUMMARY:STINK HORN a mycological musical performance-lecture by Siôn Parkinson
DESCRIPTION:STINK HORN: a mycological musical performance-lecture by Siôn Parkinson May 8th in Annandale-on-Hudson and May 9th in Hudson\, NY. \nHow can a mushroom’s noxious stench—and the droning sound of insects irresistibly drawn towards it—reshape how we listen to and make music? \nJoin artist\, musician\, and author Siôn Parkinson for an intimate performance-lecture—part talk\, part live musical experiment—exploring the strange\, multi-sensory world of the stinkhorn fungus. \nDrawing from his book Stinkhorn: How Nature’s Most Foul-Smelling Mushroom Can Change the Way We Listen\, Siôn will lead an evening of music and mycology. Like composer John Cage\, his twin passions for music and mushrooms have shaped a radical approach to sound. Yet while Cage sought silence in his fungal forays\, Siôn finds Stink⎯an element that links sound and smell\, the real and the hallucinated\, opening up new ways of listening and composing. \nSiôn’s performance will be accompanied by a recording of John Cage’s “Child of Tree” (1975)\, a work for amplified plant materials\, performed by D’Arcy Philip Gray (2014) and presented courtesy of Mode Records. \nDr Siôn Parkinson is an artist\, musician\, performer\, and author investigating our sensory relationship with the more-than-human world. He is a research fellow at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh\, Scotland\, UK\, where he is investigating the olfactory heritage of fungi—mushroom odors that hold cultural or historical significance due to their associations with particular places\, objects\, and traditions. Insta: @sionparkinson\n____\nTWO FREE PERFORMANCES:\nBard College Blum Hall\n60 Blithewood Avenue\nAnnandale-on-Hudson\, NY 12504\nThursday\, May 8th\, 4–5pm\nNo registration needed \nFlow Chart Space\n348 Warren Street\nHudson\, NY 12534\nFriday\, May 9th\, 7–8pm\nRegister here \nThe Bard presentation will be followed by a public reception at the John Cage Trust (Bard College’s Wilson House\, 1309 Annandale Road)\, featuring macrobiotic John Cage cookies!
