A filmic constellation exploring Felix Guattari’s anti-patriarchal, anti-colonialist, anti-psychiatric, animist ideas of care and the self. And an Introduction to the Episode.

Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
Can our favourite Vegas-born poet of prophetic blackness and a South Central transmuter of social rage into beauty feel through each other?
Come for the crip ingenuity; stay for the smooth feels of what it is to be each other’s everything.

A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
A performed self-cancelling discussion, with artists from the festival, invited speakers and local artists talking at once, over each other, or straining to be heard over the din.
A solo improvisation using just the situation of the concert: a space, a PA, Mattin’s own thoughts, you, the audience.
