Complex Movements: Beware of the Dandelions

Members of this Detroit-based collective—“sci-fi, hiphop, technological geeks with a passion for social change”—cite 99-year-old Marxist activist Grace Lee Boggs as a mentor and inspiration, including her interest in quantum physics. Everything, she says, is relational. Part of Complex Movements’ project is to grow activist rhizomes in several cities, connecting them. The other part is its multimedia Beware of the Dandelions, performed for groups of 35 people at a time inside a pod, in which “the audience and the company work together to create real-time art.”
