A musical and bicycle collaboration between Ben Weaver, Strong Buffalo and friends. Each day we walk around in the presence of two systems. The first system I call the &quot;original system.&quot; It is made up of plants, animals, water, air, fire, dirt ect.. The second system I call the &quot;secondary system.&quot; It is a system that has been imposed on top of this &quot;original system&quot; and is made up of concrete, roads, banks, jobs, internet, houses, power lines ect… As we find ourselves in a time of immanent cultural and ecological adaptation it is important to hold space to nurture connection, share ideas and process grief with each other. If disconnect is the offering of the &quot;secondary system&quot; then let us look to the &quot;original system&quot; for connectivity, so we can to build refuges, in the woods, near the water, where reciprocity is boundless.  Strong Buffalo and I will offer one Wilder Buffalo concert each month. We will announce the concerts and locations approximately one week in advance. If you have questions you can email me through the contact link on my website.  As with all ecosystems, all are welcome to join these events. These will be free concerts with donations appreciated.  We will wear masks and practice safe social distancing practices.
