One of the most influential groups in improvised music, with the collective understanding that comes from listening keenly to each other for decades
A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!
Three workshops lead up to an open invitation to improvise with the festival as concert. The last four hours of the Sunday 14 at Instal 10 were devoted to presentations devised during the three workshops. The material conditions (time, space, facilities…) were the instruments. From there anything could happen.

Mashed up queer fantasy of worker’s revolts, biblical demons and present-day hells, and dubbed out cyborg-electro.
Glasgow based artist Defaalt invites the audience to collaborate fully in his performance by means of a generative graphical interface.
In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.

The ongoing development of [b]reach, an abolitionist black queer retelling of Marge Piercy’s incredible feminist utopian novel Woman on the Edge of Time.
