"The Future Is Sited in a Barren Wasteland" is a conglomeration of tunes by contemporary, experimental Black and brown musicians, musings on the future, original poems, readings of letters from host Anaïs Duplan's friends, and interviews. Playing into the points of intersection between wellness practices, theories of liberation, and the avant-garde, these transmissions will survey a range of sounds from around the world and bring together poetry and theory, music, and speech.
