A celebration of risk taking and adventure from some of the boldest pioneers of the past 40 years, melding avant garde and underground forms of music and moving image to create new experiments and experiences in sight and sound.
Come for the crip ingenuity; stay for the smooth feels of what it is to be each other’s everything.
