A simple hands on workshop with micro-radio theorist and pioneer Kogawa.
For day one of Ultra-red’s project, the investigation will take up protocols for listening to the sound of freedom composed and facilitated by George E. Lewis.
An improvisation that may or may not involve (typical) improvisation.
Could cruising and random public sex be the basis of an ethically organised society? A discussion with Jackie Wang, Samuel R. Delany and Huw Lemmey.

A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
