community Laughter

Accompaniment to the third edition of 6 ISLANDS zine, 2022, pp. 33-34.

This audio allows you to listen in on an intimate moment of community laughter during the Community Writing workshop we held at WORM in November 2022.

The workshop was aimed at collectively exploring community writing as a decolonial practice, in keeping with the theme of the third edition of 6 ISLANDS zine. Under the graceful facilitation of our host, Nicole Römer, we discussed what community means to us, what forms decolonial practice can take, and how writing can be a valuable tool in the process. Some thoughts were shared, some where kept within the realms of participants’ notebooks, and some beautiful pieces of work have found their way into the zine. Besides writing and discussing, we had delicious soup and snacks from the ABCSSS islands, got to know each other a bit better, and, above all, laughed our hearts out.
