Dirty Walk
June 4, 2022 1-3 PM

Dirty Time leads a guided walking experience. We’ll engage our senses and imagination, paying close attention to the neighborhood around Goethe-Institute Boston–its flora, its history, its soil–and gather materials that can be used to contribute to our June 2022 project: Autolysis.

Dirty Library Hotline
Ongoing (June 2022).

Bring or send us your dirt to 170 Beacon Street Boston MA 02116. Call us at 617-861-8898 and tell us about it on the telephone.

Dirty Hang
June 7 and June 10, 2022, 5:30 - 7:30 PM

170 Beacon Street Boston MA 02116
Dirty Time is in residence at Goethe-Institut Boston through their “Studio 170” program in June 2022 and will be onsite working on our project Autolysis, and hanging out. Come by and hang out, ask questions, smell stuff etc. This is a casual time to get to know us and our work. BYOB, and if you’re able, also bring a ziploc baggie or jar of some soil from somewhere that’s important to you that you can share with us. If you are unable to make our dirty hangs, get in touch–we can also be available by appointment.

Dirty Movie
June 8, 6:30 PM

170 Beacon Street Boston MA 02116
LESSONS OF DARKNESS Director: Werner Herzog, documentary, 55 min., 1992 Shortly before the end of the Second Gulf War, Iraqi troops set fire to the oil fields and terminals as they withdrew from Kuwait. Herzog and his cameraman attempted to capture the unfathomable, the apocalypse, on film.

Dirty Karaoke
June 15, 6:00 PM

170 Beacon Street Boston MA 02116
Join us for a closing party for Autolysis! We’ll begin with an artists talk, where Dirty Time will host a free ranging conversation about our work and how Autolysis fits into it, perhaps with special guests. Then we’ll do a little dirty karaoke! Bring your favorite song about dirt, death or climate change and we’ll help each other keep our spirits up even though we know the end of the habitable world is nigh. Please bring a ziploc baggie or jar of some soil from somewhere that’s important to you that you can share with us for our ongoing collection.
