You Can't Plan No Shit - What Is Time? (Cheek Inc. Remix)Acali
" Edd Gibson (Friendly Fires), Lea Lea (!!!) and Orlando Leopard (Arthur Beatrice) formed an eponymous trio in 2020, connected by many of the same ideas that defined the expedition."
Acali; a social experiment conducted in 1973 which tested the adversity of a group of strangers - 6 women and 5 men - from different races, cultures and religions, as they sailed across the Atlantic on a 12 x 7 meter raft. The relationships of the crew were documented throughout the 101-day voyage as they grew closer together and came to depend on each other for survival. The expedition became a beautiful demonstration of unity, kindness and the power of equality.
It's no surprise that the story of this voyage continues to inspire many people today: everything the experiment proved is as relevant now as it was then. Edd Gibson (Friendly Fires), Lea Lea (!!!) and Orlando Leopard (Arthur Beatrice) formed an eponymous trio in 2020, connected by many of the same ideas that defined the expedition.
