@pscentral event 7: space
The satellites are spinning A new day is dawning The galaxies are waiting For planet Earth’s awakening
Oh we sing this song to A brave tomorrow. Oh we sing this song to Abolish sorrow.
Space is the Place (1974) (Insp.)
[ID: Three gifs from Afrofuturist science fiction film “Space is the Place” by Sun Ra. In the first and third gif, there are close ups of Sun Ra, with text in the middle and scenes from the film in small circles one the left and right respectively. The text in gif 1 reads: “The earth cannot move without music. The earth moves in a certain rhythm, a certain sound, a certain note. When the music stops the earth will stop and everything upon it will die.” Text in gif 3 reads: “Outer space is a pleasant place. A place where you can be free. There’s no limit to the things you can do. Your thought is free and your life is worthwhile. Space is the place.” The second gif is of Sun Ra and Arkestra at the entrance of his spaceship. The text in the middle reads “Space is the Place” and expands and shrinks. There is a gif on the top right and bottom left of scenes from the film in circles. /END ID]
