A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
A full-blooded, emotional attempt to reinvigorate improvisation from a musically inclined philosopher and two philosophically inclined improvisers.
Craig will give a guided reading of his handbook of exemplary instances of literary listening and will be joined by one of the selected authors, Vanessa Place.

A new interpretation of Kosugi’s Catch-Wave, producing a cloud of fluctuating, hypnotic drones, in front of a backdrop of projected waves.

UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
Hijokaidan rapidly built a following due to the overwhelmingly physical intensity of their live performances, often involving destructive onstage rituals of vomit, urine, mangled guitars and ear shredding volume.
