A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
One of the most startling cinematic debuts on record, The Flicker is more a hallucination than a film, an out of body experience and riotous celebration of visual harmonics frequencies. An experiment in perception, come with your mind and eyes open.

A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
