There exist places in our towns and cities that are created not by design, but by circumstance. Shadowed Spaces was a tour of overlooked, bypassed and unconsidered nooks and crannies with 3 musicians.
Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
Underlying radical transfeminism, as an urgent critique of binary essentialism and fixed identities, is the call for a new kind of thinking that can move between and integrate the truths of all lives in their transformations.
Terry is one of the most entertaining and unpredictable musicians in the London free improvising music scene. Rhodri Davies extends his instrument under a battery of techniques creating sound colours and textures quite alien to the harp.
Chip will read some of his great literary pornography, which pushes sexuality to the point of extremity and exhaustion.
For this day-long festival, sex workers and their allies from New York, the tri-state area, and Europe will gather at MoMA PS1 to debate, perform, dance, strategize & share knowledge.

A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
