Free Jazz group comprising Matt Lavelle, Matt Heyner (TEST, No-Neck Blues Band) and Ryan Sawyer (Tall Firs).
A panel exploring the radical potential of technologies through fugitivity and opacity: their ability to obscure, to make it impossible for us to be known, to render us untraceable by every arm of the state even under the all-consuming spectre of surveillance capital.
Solo organ performance by German composer Eva-Maria Houben, which focuses on ‘nearly nothing’ to expand the way we listen.

A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
