Jumping off from Sun Ra’s thoughts on evil, and the Alien films, this performance will explore how the sociality Sondra wants to visualise and participate in has no interest in respectability.
Durational group-mind drone and clatter: bamboo, electronics, the contents of your local ironmongers bin. A 3-hour set from this legendary Japanese improvisation group.
Performances at St Giles in the Fields, London by Jandek, Rhodri Davies & Angharad Davies, Rauhan Orkesteri.
A collaborative duo performance, Anoyonodekigoto sets up a sort of negotiation between a musician, a dancer, the audience and the space we’re all sharing.

The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
