Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.

A crash-course in pre-figurative, radical, queer, anti-racist, anti-police, anti-prison, anti-deportation abolitionist politics and trans-resistance.
Miniscule free-noise hissy-fits and broken instrument scrape/ squeal jams from the fools what brought you Giant Tank.
A preposterously heavy, eye of the storm musical tug of war, in which two drummers, electronics and electric guitar fall over each other in a droning crush.

A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.
How do we gesture to the invisible, the trans or the obscure? A performative conversation between boychild and Fernando, a sharing of gestures, and a bodily back and forth between mathematician and dance artist.
A silent collage of found film footage partially layered with computer graphics to provide a framework in which live music can develop.
A kind of an informal overview of INSTAL.
