Juliana’s performances chart the dissonant space and discrepancy between the presumed fixed norms of social life and the fluid lived experience those norms don’t allow for.
Thuja specialise in a unique and abstract folk music, a devoutly organic tapestry deeply rooted in the sway and bow of nature.
TEST is a collective creative improvising quartet based out of the NYC Underground (figuratively and literally). Their street-hardened, spatial Jazz is riotous and intense: is also makes us think about collective organization, and different ideas of responsibility and liberty.

Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Haino exceeds expectation with a 4 hour solo performance on a collection of more than forty instruments from all over the world.
Munehiro Narita’s Kyoaku No Intention (Worst Intentions) fired out some of the most compelling no-wave improvised rock of the 80s.
A 101 panel on sex work in Scotland, hosted by National Ugly Mugs, Sex Workers Union, Scotland for Decrim (Decrim Now) host
A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
