African American history, avant-garde jazz riffs and activism intertwine in experimental verse of extraordinary and affecting beauty that has to be heard.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
4 days of workshops, discussions and artists presentations exploring the radical act of caring for each other while working to change the world.

The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.
