An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
Poems are kisses, fists, and underground rivers. For all these reasons and many more, I am a poet.
The most sophisticated synthetic music around: timbrally otherwise body music as sonified fictions and auditive sociograms.
A panel exploring how to dismantle the master’s house — its material edifices and ideological architecture — and the construction of abolitionist futures in the present.
A system in which film is projected onto copper strips, captured again and then re-projected as video, somehow transforming the original imagery into molasses-slow, molten and incredibly tactile flickers of colour and light.
Three intimate 45 minute sessions, reading your political questions – using Tarot, Palmistry, Reiki, Astrology, and Philosophy, and the invented methods of Fake and Political Therapy.
Three panels offering opportunities to discuss how to build stronger alliances between the sex workers’ rights, migrants rights and reproductive justice movements and how to face, together, an increasingly punitive and reactionary system.
A simple hands on workshop with micro-radio theorist and pioneer Kogawa.
Pitching Fahey inspired, eastern-infused folk vibrations, sad elliptical drones and oracle chants into one kaleidoscopic sound.
One of the great experimental films. A 60 minute, three part riddle that maybe approximates our intellectual development by moving from imageless words to the recognition of silent images and the learning of simple tasks and finally a serenity and acceptance of death.
Investigate film as language, via the language of film reduced to the basic units of film and language. A film as text in which each frame is a single word.
Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
