Taking The Futurist Cinema’ manifesto and turning it into software to track ‘aluminium’ online, tracing relationships companies with interests in aluminum had to each other and other agencies.

Rhodri Davies plays two deconstructed harps. Lee Patterson examines the sonic properties of burning nuts.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in a large multi chambered industrial ice house.
Like walking through the abstracted amalgamation of 30 or so storms, trays of water shaken by thunder, light bouncing off pools.

How can we imagine bodies not as an end in themselves, but as a medium through which we can become one another’s means?
An improvised film about our worlds at the brink, on the edge, in front of a crisis. To stand on the side of life, by seeing the resistance to genocide in Palestine as a turning point to overcome.
