A conversation of intergenerational trans-resistance and anti-racist fierceness between two of the most inspiring public speakers we know.
The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
Andrew Chalk & Christoph Heemann return with their diaphanous, impressionistic drone duo; their slowly evolving and enthralling works flutter and quiver with elegantly restrained, miniature sound events.
A new interpretation of Kosugi’s Catch-Wave, producing a cloud of fluctuating, hypnotic drones, in front of a backdrop of projected waves.

Laser beam sine tones used to draw delicate, abstract patterns by vibrating charcoal, placed atop of a great strip of paper running through the gallery; beautiful, fragile sound-created autonomous drawing.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
Could they be one of the most ferocious live noise acts around, or a necessary and ludicrous parody of ferocious noise acts? Could they be both?
