The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Real-time video feedback loops submerged in laminal sheets of sound soaked in gauzy timbral detail and multi-valenced, buzzing overtones.

Expansive and considered, inclusive and deeply human minimalism: Antoine Beuger, Radu Malfatti, Manfred Werder.
Performances at St Giles in the Fields, London by Jandek, Rhodri Davies & Angharad Davies, Rauhan Orkesteri.
A discussion about what is at stake in the performance of realness and the practice of passing, and how they are both acts of survival and resistance.
