An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
Three days of discussions, performances, actions, dancing and food – continuing No Total’s ongoing contemplation of ways of being together and the ways Arika have been entangled in those, ever since Episode 4.

In Our Hands is a nine week programme of workshops exploring radical approaches to health and collective care in the movement for liberation and social justice.
Real-time video feedback loops submerged in laminal sheets of sound soaked in gauzy timbral detail and multi-valenced, buzzing overtones.
