It is impossible to treat anything or anybody that does not admit treatment is a need … I heard that somewhere. Boring and true.

The Propaganda Gesture is both a public apology, an individual recognition of collective interdependent dynamics, and a desperate hug in the face of invisible pain. It is an attempt to push WE further.

They nurture us, heal us, resurrect us. We live in their domain, as guests. We employ them, we harvest their labour. We keep them in our deepest dungeons, and we fail to entertain them in the last 1000 years.

The project is a live radio piece for fungi, rather than human beings.
