Arrive, get settled, be hosted and meet-up in IRL and URL.
Nina’s going to talk about November, by Hito Steyerl: what and how the film thinks, or about what and how it might makes us think (which is connected, but not the same thing), by watching, and it discussing (with you?).

Work for cello, percussion, contra bassoon and cherbulum commissioned for Instal in collaboration with Paragon

Former street performer, organist, performance artist, circus performer, harpist, accordion player, tree surgeon and tricyclist performing solo.
