Brother and sister stumble over the early morning horizon in a spectral haze of emotionally devastating lunar vocals and oblique, lithium-soaked folk.
Music is full of refracted brass and wind tones, distorted tape loops, dead silent air and the occasional piercing shard of sound.
A panel exploring how to dismantle the master’s house — its material edifices and ideological architecture — and the construction of abolitionist futures in the present.
Arrive, get settled, be hosted and meet-up in IRL and URL.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
Laser beam sine tones used to draw delicate, abstract patterns by vibrating charcoal, placed atop of a great strip of paper running through the gallery; beautiful, fragile sound-created autonomous drawing.

An immersive live performance for multiple 16mm film and bass clarinet, taking in the whole gallery, submerging the audience.
A silent collage of found film footage partially layered with computer graphics to provide a framework in which live music can develop.
Radical transfeminism aims to hold the space for finding relations between the ruins of the everyday. Emerging from the debris, spaces for politics find form as poetics to carry understandings, actions and be/longings.
Paul Sharits is one of our all time heroes, and one of the great artist filmmakers of the 20th Century.
A crash-course in pre-figurative, radical, queer, anti-racist, anti-police, anti-prison, anti-deportation abolitionist politics and trans-resistance.
