I began drafting ideas for the first episode – wanting to lean into the idea of south Asian sound/ unheard voices. After finding some old tapes in my house of south Asian music, I began to explore the way I felt listening to them – feelings of curiosity, interest, and disconnect began to emerge and after a couple of tutorial sessions, this became the focus. exploring the tapes became the root of exploring the disconnect I felt listening to the audio and I felt like this was something I had to explore further. Appropriately, my brother had just been to a Qawwali event – his first one – and I decided to interview him on his thoughts. I wanted to capture the fresh newness of the experience allowing for a capture of the feeling of disconnect that I presumed he may have felt as well.
