Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.

In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.

A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
Sachiko M and Ami Yoshida, two of the most prominent members of the Onkyo movement, place much more emphasis on sound texture than on musical structure, distilling elements of techno, noise, and electronic music into a unique hybrid.
