Pitching Fahey inspired, eastern-infused folk vibrations, sad elliptical drones and oracle chants into one kaleidoscopic sound.
A welcoming intermission between events, open to the public.
An assembly to try and provide some experiential and theoretical resources for the renewal of a certain affective, extra-political sociality, in the face of one of our great adversaries; the forces of colonial, imperial, genocidal denial.

A space to reflect on our own experiences with the police and explore more community and care-based ways of dealing with violence and difficulties in our lives.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
In rethinking the body, the law, the state, gender, race, violence, care and empathy, how we might give humanness a different future?

Intriguing, underground, Berlin based musicians interested in the borders between music and theatre, language, the visual arts, politics.
