This week Candy chats with Lay the Mystic who is back living with his 10-year old siblings due to the lockdown. Lay has been spending the time playing video games and offering his admin skills to assist grassroots organisations aiding migrant domestic workers effected by the Beirut explosion. Lay is a spoken word poet, musician, performer and practicing mystic of Lebanese Tongan heritage residing in Naarm. His recent works explore and unpack the experience of intimacy through building cubby forts, inviting people in and sharing his feelings with them. Candy and Lay discuss shopping while black, shifting through portals as lockdown madness sets in, collaboration across musical forms and how to use your creative skills in times of crisis.
