Sit with us tonight on Radio Flouka for an hour of mangrove musing. With field recordings from Lamu - a village on the Swahili coast of Kenya - and night monologue reflections on marine ecologies. Finding both flight and refuge in the intertidal and liminal. Constellation thinking, scum gathering of the tides as a way to better probe the contours of a nature that has none. Poetics of beginning and searching.

The mangrove is not a tree, but an event
The tide is not a cycle, but a miracle
