Black Clock 12 contributor, muay thai warrior and self-described “disgruntled storyteller, professional lyricist, and literary guerrilla eco-thug” Dante Zúñiga-West will be performing as a member of Resident Anti-Hero at this year’s Pronoia Festival in Arkansas, July 30 – August 1.
Pronoia (being both the cosmological and moral opposite of paranoia) is “a litter-free weekend of great music focused on community, sustainability, art, spirituality, and education.” Festivities will be held at Byrd’s Adventure Center in Ozark, AR. In addition to music, workshops and consciousness-raising events, attendees will be offered all the recreational amenities of the park (zip lines, hiking, kayaking and more), which is located in the Mulberry River Valley within the Ozark National Forest.

Resident Anti-Hero’s music has been called “dystopic mythopoesis,” “militantly off-the-grid,” and as presenting “a model, mostly imaginary but grounded in the facts many of us dare not contemplate, for a sustainable and still uniquely American post-civilization experience.” You can learn more about the Anti-Hero Underground at http://www.residentantihero.com/.
