In a world that keeps becoming louder, faster and more demanding we ask: What if you are also allowed to simply be still?

[DIS]ORDER – The Spectrum of Sleep is a guided power nap for the overstimulated brain in which you are invited to drift away at your own pace. Lie down. Listen. Let go.

Our society is built around efficiency, speed and conformity. Often from a neurotypical perspective. Those who do not fit within these structures are expected to constantly adapt or are seen as abnormal. In this process valuable qualities are often lost: creativity, sensitivity and the ability to think beyond fixed structures.

[DIS]ORDER moves away from these expectations. Instead of offering compensation we create space for different rhythms and alternative ways of perceiving: hypersensitivity is welcome, slow processing is welcome, moments of stillness are welcome.

Through light, sound and voice, we slowly dim the brain and guide the body into a safe state between wakefulness and sleep. Falling asleep is not seen as failure, but as a form of listening: a sign that the body feels safe enough to let go.

Throwing it back to [DIS]ORDER - The Disruption at .forest.013 , where we explored one of three evolving forms of the [DIS]ORDER 🧠

What began as an immersive installation transformed into a live experience of sound, movement, visuals and performance, exploring neurodiversity, sensory overload and the pressure to conform.

Each version of [DIS]ORDER approaches these themes from a different perspective, experimenting with new forms, contexts and ways of experiencing them together.

We’re currently back in the studio, continuing to develop the project. More soon. Keep an eye on our socials or join our Whatsapp community via the link in our bio.

This Friday, June 5, we bring [DIS]ORDER to the with The Spectrum of Sleep: a guided power nap for the overstimulated brain 😴

Tickets via the link in our bio.

We present our work in a variety of venues.
From white cubes and grey spaces to a black box theatre, an underground basement, or a festival.
Because the space often plays a defining role in our work.

For the first presentation of [DIS]ORDER: The Spectrum of Sleep, we chose to collaborate with the Laurenskerk in Rotterdam.

Churches, chapels, mosques and other spaces of contemplation have functioned as a buffer against the outside world for centuries.

Places where time slows down and breathing is given space.

Where it is normal to close your eyes and turn inward completely, even if only for a moment.

Thank you for dancing with us last weekend at .forest.013 ! We brought a new version of [DIS]ORDER named ‘The Disruption’. With vocals by .roza and sound by 🔊

From an immersive installation into a physical, collective experience. What once lived inside the exhibition space now moves onto the floor, through sound, rhythm, voice, visuals and bodies in motion.

Up next: The Spectrum of Sleep at , get your tickets via the link in our bio!
