A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
A sound of buzzing and flickering metallic drones, glottal stops and guttural growls, and also an explosiveness and purity of sound that reminds you as much of Bill Dixon as anyone else.

An LSD trip gone right via dense explorations of post-Fahey steel and low level drone.
A workshop inviting participants to enact a series of scores that explore witnessing, testimony, grief and mourning, facilitated by Mezna and Sadia, and accompanied by Sakina Ali.
