Vanessa Place talks at The Friday Event series at the Glasgow School of Art about her practice as a writer.
A dense materialist experience at the limits of contemporary computer music, drawing on Korean Shamanism and Communism; striving to create a strange new vibration to the world that seems to contain the seed of everything.
