Reality Streaming with Hawa Arsala

Magic Inclined - A podcast by Magic Inclined

This week, Hawa Arsala (https://www.realitystreaming.substack.com) joins us for a beautiful and indulgent conversation around the experience of life in America as a child of political refugees from Afghanistan. This episode was recorded on an auspicious day during Ramadan and launched on the end of Ramadan for Eid. You can learn more about Eid here:(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eid_al-Fitr) We talk about: Last Friday of Ramadan Islam and ancient traditions Questioning faith after losing her father to cancer Becoming a seeker for answers about the universes Being fascinated by the occult Attending Berkley Magical events that brought her back to the occult Connecting to roots Our DNA and the information it carries The experience of refugees The importance of poets vibrational frequencies or sounds to feelings And so so so much more Meet Hawa Arsala (she/her): Hawa Arsala is a cultural anthropologist and creative director. While most comfortable in liminal spaces, she considers Washington D.C. and Afghanistan two geographies of origin. Across her career, she has creatively directed global campaigns, gone into the field researching the effects of war on widows and children in Afghanistan, and studied youth culture across America. Her writing and creative work attempt to detoxify the future by centering: the margins, innovation, deep collaboration, and synchronicity. Arsala’s field research, writing, and creative work explore things like the controlling mechanisms of power, digital intimacy, cultural folklore, aesthetic provocations of human behavior, and benevolent technology. Reality Streaming is her latest project.
