In the next edition of Agora Club - the party that performs the act of social dreaming - The University of the Underground will orchestrate another ludic investigation: this time, exploring collective fears. Agora Club II: Thrill Demeter will bring together dining, discussions, performances, dancers, a fashion parade and DJs to collectively perform and explore the act of transformation in an age reliant on extremities. Agora Club applies design experiences with cultural and philosophical debate to stage collective participatory performance parties like no other. From the survivalist strategies required to endure the Anthropocene to Silicon Valley space trips to Mars, the dreamers of the day and participants will have to negotiate futures fraught with fear. The production of nightmares will dominate the evening’s narration from monster politics to environmental catastrophe; the thrill of Demeter will be summoned on the night of 22nd November.
Some of the questions we will explore:
Is there a way to untangle the psychology of fear from the production of future imaginaries? Can horror and fear produce counter-narratives to navigate our night terrors and dream up contagious futures to sustain uncertain times?
The next event will include discussions, dancing, a Thanksgiving dinner, a number of special guests and a vogue fashion parade with a whole host of international artists and some of Amsterdam’s most exciting emerging talents.
All ticket sales to go towards the University of the Underground registered charity (RSIN 8575.82.781)
