(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.

Paul Sharits is one of our all time heroes, and one of the great artist filmmakers of the 20th Century.
Koji Asano, Japanese composer and sound-artist performing slow groaning burbling tones, moaning echoes and drones.

During their time in Scotland for Instal 06 Dave Dove, Bhob Rainey and Greg Kelly did some improvisation workshops and performances in and around Glasgow.
