In this response to the Self Cancellation project, Lee Patterson dissolves medicine in glasses of water and explores the sonic content.

A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).

Ken presents his Nervous Magic Lantern, wherein film itself is forsaken for an investigation of hypnotic and trancelike crystaline forms. Eric La Casa works with recordings of everyday occurrences: the background hum of place.
A meditation on how all of us perform — sometimes reinforcing, sometimes subverting — the shifting categories of gender, sexuality and race.
