Join Brian as he ruminates on the history of how experimental filmmakers and sound artists have drifted into and taken over galleries in order to show their work.
Voguing, drag, clubbing, and the politics of communities making different performances of gender and sexuality visible.

UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
First in a series of workshops for workers and non-workers who care. Does work that asks us to be attentive to the needs of others force us to sell our capacity for kindness?
