Ray and Thomas talking about how cognitive neuroscience is unlocking the physical basis of personal experience.

A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Finnish duo Grönlund Nisunen are known for their extraordinary work fusing incredible sounds with stunning objects in large scale sculptural installations.

A workshop for educators, activists and young people to think about radical, anti-imperialist pedagogy, and what fighting for the Palestinian cause looks like for young people in the imperial core. PDF of the resource available soon.
