Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing by the Stones of Stenness, instead of the Ring of Brodgar, because of bad weather.
CCI Sound system: a performance in which new material will be mixed and phased between two huge PA’s, one a precise Meyer system, the other a huge wall of Marshall amps
Quasi-theatrical multiple-projector pieces play with the relationship between performers, art and audiences.

In which Storyboard P and members of Project X pick a song, freestyle to it, chat with us about what dancing means to them, then pick another song, freestyle, chat, repeat…
Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
A back and forth between Fred and Fernando on the transits and obstructions between mathematics and poetics, and how both help us to think from the other side.
A delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).
Rhodri Davies plays two deconstructed harps. Lee Patterson examines the sonic properties of burning nuts.
Moor Mother is a musician, Philadelphian housing activist and black quantum futurist.
