Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
A mixture of investigation groups, live performances, screenings and installations at DCA; the festival looked to strip back music, sound, film and moving image to their core ideas and explore them with artists and audiences.
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
How do people living with disability see themselves in today’s sexualised culture? How do we imagine our crip sexual selves despite society wanting to reduce us to non-erotic bodies?
Underlying radical transfeminism, as an urgent critique of binary essentialism and fixed identities, is the call for a new kind of thinking that can move between and integrate the truths of all lives in their transformations.
Brother and sister stumble over the early morning horizon in a spectral haze of emotionally devastating lunar vocals and oblique, lithium-soaked folk.
Slapstick comedy, monologue, and a kind of live sculpture transformed through video, props, musical instruments and make-up.
In true reality television style, this in-depth artist talk will tackle all the hardest-hitting questions and juiciest details about care, creative collaboration, and disability justice.
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
