RESONANCE with Ruby Savage

Part of Movements fron the Margins : Collective Altar

People Dem Collective x Diasporas Now

In RESONANCE, Ruby Savage leads a deep listening journey exploring how vibration moves through the body, how sound recalibrates the nervous system, and how collective attunement can root us in presence.

Part sound ritual, part meditative grounding, part communal recalibration, this session invites participants to arrive softly, tune inward, and open themselves to the subtle frequencies that guide transformation.

This activation sits at the heart of the residency’s sonic thread, preparing the ground for the closing performances later in the week.

Ruby Savage is a DJ, sound practitioner and creative force known for her expansive approach to listening as a tool for connection, healing and liberation. Her work spans dancefloors, meditative environments and community-rooted gatherings, always inviting people into deeper relationship with themselves and one another through vibration and frequency.

Ruby’s practice honours diasporic sound traditions, the sacredness of collective rhythm, and the ways music holds memory across time
