Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
Watching films and chatting with Karrabing members about those films: as they attend to the memory and practice of the ancestral present and the ancestral catastrophe that Karrabing and their more-than-human world find themselves facing.
