Have A Crows Feast! Welcome! Unite!

Saturday April 26th 10 am – 4 pm

Serving through PLAY in a Living Systems Paradigm.

Join us for this full day workshop with visiting insructor S. Embla all the way from Norway! 

This workshop uncovers play technology for Deep Fun as an undercurrent for an Emerging Culture that serves all Life on Earth. Playing with what plays us through the lens of clown, bouffon, ritual, being states and reflections that disrupt our ways of seeing.

We must, therefore, FUNeRALLY.

Certain conditions are favourable for FUNkey FUNgi to pop up, you never quite know where or when or even if. Feeding of compost. Seeping through cracks. Allowing discovery only when… You are in the Field. Speaking Mountain and Fjord, Singing Water and Pissing Joy, Siri Embla is your FUNeral at this whole day Ritual Service.

Merging Earth with Clod, walking off cliffs with confidence (no, by shitting our pants). Stupefying Idiocy (no, by wearing smarty-pants). Flocking into levels of Outrageous Fun. (no, by taking ourselves extremely seriously). Siri Embla Plays in the hidden fields that dissolve the structures within us restraining our deepest fun to express itself. FUNkey FUNgi Field was found and founded.

About Siri Embla

Player. Mother. Educator.

Born in Norway, playing in dozens of countries. Over 3 decades of experience as a player in theatrical landscapes. Specifically focused on Bouffon and Clowning, which she sees as instruments to reveal core human patterns that restrain us from becoming who we need to be as a species in a thriving ecosystem. Connecting to patterns of indigenous wisdom through outrageous stupidity and awe.

She has particularly been playing with health care clowning in hospitals, refugee camps, with people with dementia and now evolving this practice towards bringing in the Village Fools as an essential value adding societal role. Founder of Norwegian District Clowns; FUNkey FUNgi Field, a global platform for developing regenerative media content creators; and Northern Seas Thriving serving regenerative development of culture communities and places.

Come, come,

Spirits of magic,

If ye come not,

Awake, awake,

Spirits of magic,

I am come to you,

Arise from sleep.
