During Episode 9 we made this clip with Storyboard P at Kinning Park Complex. Video by Ash Reid.

Daniel Carter & Sabir Mateen’s trio with percussionist Andrew Barker; incessantly driving forward through sweat-drenched bursts of pure ecstatic freedom.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an abandoned oil tanker on Hoy.
