Muse Dodd: SOUND

One of our new 2021 FlatFile artists is Muse Dodd (they/them), a multidisciplinary artist, curator, and DJ from Severn, MD currently based in New Orleans. Through the act of remembering, Dodd uses their body to map the lived experience of Africans in America. Dodd channels trauma to connect with, process and alchemize pain; both personal and collective through movement, ritual and collective dreaming.

Dodd created a playlist exclusively for Transformer’s Evoking the Senses programming series, created to inspire relaxation and stillness in listeners. Their playlist includes guided meditations, instrumentals for meditation and transcendence, as well as vibey soundscapes, all aimed to tune out the world and to reflect inward.
