“Calling the wind from the steppe…” is a fully authorial work by poet Aigerim Tazhi, based on her poem “On the aul’s edge a woman in a mortar pounded millet...” ("В ступе женщина просо толкла на краю аула…"). Part of her ongoing audiovisual project AiTys (since 2023), the piece was created entirely by her uniting her own poetry, voice, sound, music, performance on the ancient Kazakh instrument kobyz, and the visual imagery she created.
