A system in which oscillators shake The Arches, seismographs pick up the harmonics that are then amplified through massive sub-bass PA.
A bodiless treatise on narration, bored speakers, audience misbehaviour and police megaphones, but: is anybody listening?
A conversation about the movement for prison abolition and refusing the logic of race and sex that underpins the criminalisation and mass incarceration of communities.
A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
Minimal details and otherworldly glistening drones, rich with sustained metallic timbres that breathe with the scrapped pulse of bowed metal.
4 days of workshops, discussions and artists presentations exploring the radical act of caring for each other while working to change the world.

The practice of North African Indigenous revolutionary love, in the face of European capitalist violence and settler colonialism, with one of the most vital anti-colonial thinkers in Europe.
What would a world and an ethics look like free from the destructive consequences of the Western mind?
A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
