Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
Thought and action, writing and protesting. A chat with Nat Raha, KUCHENGA and Jackie Wang asking what can be learnt from writing across genres by agitators, activists and abolitionists?
Using violin and cello the duo map out a twilight sonic world that seems to tread the faultlines between improvisation and composition.
A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
Black Boned Angel’s is a rock sound, stripped of all extraneous detail right down to its core, stretched out and nailed to the ceiling.
Leading language/ action/ sound poet performed his groundbreaking concrete poem, a dizzying mandala of text, symbols and rubber stamps; a kind of book as reading machine.

A performed installation by one of Germany’s most interesting visual artists, based on edited transcripts of the 1961 trial of Adolf Eichmann in Jerusalem and the writings of Hannah Arendt
