Post consideration and post rationalisation… How do we think about experimental music and film after the performance?
Slapstick comedy, monologue, and a kind of live sculpture transformed through video, props, musical instruments and make-up.
A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.
