An evening of live performances, readings & saucy rococo cakes celebrating the launch of Truth and Lies – An Anthology of Writing and Art by Sex Workers.
A live installation of the ‘Film Ist’: projected on 4 huge screens and an improvised soundtrack from 4 figureheads of the Austrian experimental music scene.
A performance for projectionist, musicians and audience, which plays with references to Oscar Levant and Gershwin: apparently a series of small doses of chaos.
An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.

A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
A 3-day exploration – through performance, screenings and discussion – of the art and politics of wayward communities who refuse to be bound by the fictions of race and sex.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an old underground reservoir in Fife.
