Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
Christian Bök‘s work spans thrillingly conceptual poetry to body-shaking vocal performances.

Freeform Super 8mm documentation of Saturday at Instal 06 by filmmaker Matt Hulse.
Talk charting the radical history of experimental music in Japan + the lowdown into the careers of many of the artists appearing at MLFC.

How do communities formed under the duress of violent othering and the joy of solidarity – such as ballroom culture, Black diasporas, Zapatistas – reform bonds of kinship?
A system in which film is projected onto copper strips, captured again and then re-projected as video, somehow transforming the original imagery into molasses-slow, molten and incredibly tactile flickers of colour and light.
The struggle for sex workers’ rights and how we can understand it in the continuum of care work and other forms of invisibilised and precarious work.
Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
