A panel exploring the poetics of abolition. “Poetry is not only dream and vision; it is the skeleton architecture of our lives. It lays the foundations for a future of change.”
A community of those without community, for a community to come. A schizo-scenic video-collage of the disturbing ‘normality’ of Moby Dick.

Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
Work for cello, percussion, contra bassoon and cherbulum commissioned for Instal in collaboration with Paragon

For day five of Ultra-red’s project, the investigation will review the previous work undertaken together, and perhaps draw up a summary of reflections and pose some future questions.
Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
The second of two short film programmes featuring works that blur the boundaries between music and film from artists who cross and redefine those long held divisions. This programme highlights contemporary works.
A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.
