A space for contemplation and agency at a time when every second counts.

On January 27, 2026, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists set the Doomsday Clock to 85 seconds before midnight, the closest it has ever been to the symbolic threshold of global catastrophe. This unprecedented setting reflects a sharply heightened risk of civilisational collapse driven by escalating nuclear tensions, unregulated development of AI, continuing failures of global leadership, and the most enduring issue of our time – climate change.

Led by artistic director and composer Robert McIntyre and pianist Georgina Lewis, Changing Wilds Ensemble blends post-minimalism, art music, and neoclassical works to contemplate these wicked problems.
