Nina’s going to talk about November, by Hito Steyerl: what and how the film thinks, or about what and how it might makes us think (which is connected, but not the same thing), by watching, and it discussing (with you?).
Summer Solstice hang out IRL and URL on 21 June
Could cruising and random public sex be the basis of an ethically organised society? A discussion with Jackie Wang, Samuel R. Delany and Huw Lemmey.
Conceptual choreography as critique, in Ligia’s film of Caribbean plots and scandals, and the possibilities of anti-colonial revenge, rest and repair.
Dworkin asks: What would a non-expressive poetry look like? A poetry of intellect rather than emotion?

Jandek’s first ever live performance. Unannounced, the performance was a total surprise for everybody at the festival.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
