Voguing, drag, clubbing, and the politics of communities making different performances of gender and sexuality visible.
Slapstick comedy, monologue, and a kind of live sculpture transformed through video, props, musical instruments and make-up.
A kind of performed installation of searing noise and silence, where we’re not sure who the performer is, when it starts or ends or even who it’s for.

Like walking through the abstracted amalgamation of 30 or so storms, trays of water shaken by thunder, light bouncing off pools.
Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.
Sound as it is endured by space and the body: 15 participants lie face down and pound the floor with a microphone one thousand times, each person choosing their own rhythm and intensity.
A short chat about what we (Arika) might be trying to do with our program for the Biennial.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
