Fernando thinks that when maths is deep, it should be simple and able to be explained by hand gestures. By embodying ideas, we’re able to more clearly think about their cultural implications.
A recreation of one of Gustav Metzger’s celebrated auto destructive performances.
Do ideas emerging from particle physics help to re-think of blackness as a mode of life in which it’s possible to practice difference without separation?

Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
