Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.
A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.

Individual experience separated by physical boundaries (of space, time or ability) suggested as communities of collective experience by (perhaps voyeuristic) artists.

Includes: a polish counting lesson, around NYC with D A Pennebaker, a portrait of a tower block, a man with a spade, at home with KYTN regular Guy Sherwin, a cinematic Blair Witchish cut-up and a song for some swings.
An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
How do communities practice being one another’s means, addressing their material problems facing them replicating the state’s violent logic of who is disposable.
