CoSM Celestial Celebrations Explained:

Equinox and Solstice celebrations at CoSM honor polarities and the alignment of the earth with the sun, crests and troughs in the wave of time — the longest and shortest days and nights of the year and the two days of balance and equivalence. When we notice the passing of the days, the months, the years, we contemplate impermanence, raising our awareness to the preciousness of life in the here and now.  

At CoSM, Celestial Celebrations begin with spoken wisdom on a worthy topic. After the talk and discussion, the audience breaks. Then, look forward to some of the best electronic music, down tempo music, ecstatic dance, a fire circle, and fire spinning. Meet Alex and Allyson and enjoy live painting from a showcase of visionary artists. 

Acrobats, belly dancers, projections on Entheon, tarot readers, palmists, face painters, group sand mandalas have all been part of the rich tapestry, the transformative tableau of uplifting offerings at CoSM Celestial Celebrations.  

Entheon, the Grey House, and the Mushroom Cafe will be open.

Humandala

Humandala is the auditory outlet of lifelong musician Christopher Simmens. As a young man, Christopher earned his chops playing bass guitar in a broad range of conventional music acts.
Today, he draws on these rich music traditions to mangle and contort bass in more unconventional ways. Humandala’s sound consists of glitched out textures, vast cinematic soundbeds, formant rich synthesis, and twisted bass lines. All while maintaining a strong foundation in memorable melody and emotive chord progression. Striving to find a balance of music equal parts for the head and for the heart, Humandala weaves a sonic tapestry stitched from many facets of the human experience.

Humandala broke on to the national scene in 2022 with his debut performance at Tipper and Friends. Since then he has gone on to play notable festivals such as Resonate, Submersion, Infrasound, Resonance and more. He has also gone on to play shows across the country providing direct support for staples in the scene such as Alejo, Drrtywulvs, Symbolico, Bogg Dogg, Papadosio, Keota and many more.

With a plethora of impressive releases and full length albums on the horizon, Humandala continues to make his mark as a standout producer in left field bass culture.
