A conversation between Philip and Moten: how do we read NourbeSe’s anti-narrative poetic lament in Glasgow today, given the city’s role in the history of slavery?

A beautifully crisp, slowly evolving duo for cello and projected images. Abstract but still figurative; change only noticeable after the fact.
A performed filmic conversation on queer and black world making.
A full-blooded, emotional attempt to reinvigorate improvisation from a musically inclined philosopher and two philosophically inclined improvisers.
ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.

Patented 60 cycle hums, static pops, and terse electron pinpricks mutated into perfect, post-techno grooves and synaesthesic video

A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
