Moor Mother is a musician, Philadelphian housing activist and black quantum futurist.
A life force of ecstatic clarity capable of loquacious bursts of affirmation.
A loud, buzzing stew of electrical light as noise and convulsive electric guitar squall.

Folk poet, actor and bon viveur Kan Mikami in duo with Jojo Hiroshige, a founding member of Japanese Noise band Hijokaidan.
A cast of pioneering and provocative spirits who exist outside the mainstream, between borders and definitions; a series of events that each explore different aspects of music that doesn’t quite fit any given category. INSTAL 08 included the Self-Cancellation project.
