Mystery Call is a 1-to-1 conversation that is digitally delivered and connects us in community near and far. It is influenced by awareness of bodily diversities and disability cultures. It is an experience to be heard and embodied instead of being visually seen. 

You can join the Mystery Call virtually wherever you are or in person with the MindsEye Collective. At an appointed time, you and your mystery call partner will engage in a supported pre-arranged online call with cameras off. Together you will be guided via conversational prompts to consider and safely share aspects of your present experience and your relationship with the spaces / places you are in. As a pair, you will select fragments of your conversation to share with the Mindseye Collective that will be woven into dance. The dances will be embodied in Naarm throughout the Midsumma Festival for anyone to witness. To end your call, you will be offered a dance that has been composed and translated from a previous pair’s Mystery Call to read aloud to one another and embody if you wish.  

This event is FREE, however bookings are required.
