A discussion about what is at stake in the performance of realness and the practice of passing, and how they are both acts of survival and resistance.
(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
John Mullarkey sets in a wider context our understanding of Alain Badiou and Francois Laruelle, two of the most radical philosophers in Europe today.
Criminal Queers visualises a radical trans/queer struggle against the prison industrial complex, working to abolish the multiple ways our hearts, genders, and desires are confined.
Heat-mapped bodies, found porn films, Korean psyche-folk, creepy police intrusion and self-defence.
How might two of the great musicians working within contrasting traditions of freedom collaborate? What might this produce: musically, socially, allegorically?
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
Joe Colley specialises in hotwired sound constructions full of ominous electronic disturbances and caustic, noxious drones. For KYTN, Joe created a situation of controlled chaos with 50 light sensitive oscillators placed in a field of candles.
Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
