SOUNDS LiKE CHAOS #002

Hi Reader,

​

​

We are back with the SECOND SLC newsletter; announcing a new event series, film screening and Discover page, as well as continuing our popular opportunities board to kick start your creative career.

BALLYMAN

Join us for a screening of Ballyman, a short film written by Artist Associate Faruq Adigun, co-created with SOUNDS LiKE CHAOS and VIDEOfeet.

​

About the film

Ballyman follows Deji, a young Black man from South East London, as he navigates the city cloaked in his balaclava. As his mental state deteriorates, a new path of self-discovery begins to unfold, one that’s as isolating as it is enlightening.

With music from Rezon8 artists and group conversation about Black men's mental health.

ARTiST HIGHLIGHT

Every month we shout out artists we have worked with, from SOUNDS LiKE CHAOS associates to frequent collaborators and local artists.

This month we are shining the light on Cecilia Alfonso-Eaton and Tasneim Zyada who co-facilitated the 2024 (Un)Censored. creative campaign team, using creativity to initiate change for young women in Lewisham.

Cecilia Alfonso-Eaton

Cecilia is an actor, facilitator and writer of Mixed Cuban and British heritage from South London. She is also co-founder of campaign Latinxcluded which fights for the visibility and representation of the Latin American community in the UK. She likes to create work that is political and that explores her heritage as well as anything that involves music and dance! Cecilia co-facilitated alongside Tasneim workshops with SOUNDS LiKE CHAOS last year working on the (Un)Censored. campaign.

Tasneim Zyada

​Tasneim Zyada is a Palestinian-British writer and international performer. Her work documents the generational stories that rise to the surface within her own. Described as a calm storm, Tasneim’s writing touches on memories, mental health, home and faith. Her accolades include facilitating sold out creative writing workshops and performing on international stages - notably: AWAN Festival, Bloomsbury Festival, You Belong Here Festival at the Southbank Centre and the Athen’s International Video Poetry Festival in Greece.
