Summing up of the investigations with a reflection on what has been done that week and what could be done the next.
Edinburgh. Beer and smoke befuddled drone/ deadly efforts by Pjorn72 kingpin.

This session focuses in on the defiant mutual aid practices of early and DIY feminist movements in the UK, that attempted to shift and radicalise care and kinship away from the domain of the nuclear family.
Performance of a Sudoko based graphic score giving rise to a process of self cancellation.
Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
