Fusing butoh dance theater, hip-hop mixology, new music, and multimedia,the Vermont premiere of time/life/beauty by Michael Sakamoto and Paul D. Miller (aka DJ Spooky) is inspired by the legacy of famed composer-musician and activist Ryuichi Sakamoto (1952–2023). Inspired by the variety and mystery of Ryuichi’s music, interdisciplinary collaborations, and environmental and anti-war commitments, time/life/beauty looks at the past, present, and future of acute cultural, social, and ecological themes in our historical moment.

A New Anthology

From the silence of the void to the canvas of the popular imagination, the cosmos has always called to us. In a new anthology exploring the celestial intersections of art, literature, and interstellar creativity, Paul D. Miller aka DJ Spooky sets the trajectory. He contributes both a visionary introduction and the cover art—crafting the visual threshold for this journey into the stars.

Edited by Doug Barrett and Saskia Vermeylan, this collection charts the influence of space exploration on the creative mind. It arrives as the latest constellation in Routledge’s series, Science and the Arts since 1750.

Stand by: The full roster of contributors and the cover reveal will be announced shortly.
