Electronic music, time, thought, the word, and consecutive matters
A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!

A crash-course in pre-figurative, radical, queer, anti-racist, anti-police, anti-prison, anti-deportation abolitionist politics and trans-resistance.

Three iconic figures from the Japanese underground assembled as a trio to stand in for the advertised duo of Junko and Jerome Noetinger who was unable to attend the festival due to illness.
Politicised fan-fiction chronicling working class gay urban space and fantasy.
