A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.

This mini, late-night ball will include categories inspired by the events earlier in the weekend.
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.
Slowly evolving ultra-subtle harmonics and multi-tracked, otherworldly drones that only reveal their true power at high volume.
