Heat-mapped bodies, found porn films, Korean psyche-folk, creepy police intrusion and self-defence.
A conversation and livestream considering a global feminist critique of capital with Silvia Federici, Hortense Spillers and Gayatri C. Spivak.
Politicised fan-fiction chronicling working class gay urban space and fantasy.

Listening to people listening to their own homes. Musicians and actors will listen back to recordings made in local peoples homes on headphones, and interpret/ translate what they are hearing.
