Score #16: The birth of the ocean

A creation myth is a symbolic narrative that describes how the world began.These stories often shape the worldview and values of the society that shares them. How might we reinscribe a symbolic connection between the inner and outer waters (ie: the ocean, our menstrual cycles, and the pull of the moon) by weaving them together in a fantastical creation story? What magical knowledge about water has been erased and how might a creation story bring it back into existence through the play of our imagination?
