A kind of an informal overview of INSTAL.
A slowed down single tracking shot along a corridor as workers at the Bath Iron Works, (Maine, USA) take their lunch break.

Profound mathematical ideas for romantics, to help us linger in the difference we share.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
