What would a world and an ethics look like free from the destructive consequences of the Western mind?
Solo organ performance by German composer Eva-Maria Houben, which focuses on ‘nearly nothing’ to expand the way we listen.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.
Summing up of the investigations with a reflection on what has been done that week and what could be done the next.

Andrew Chalk & Christoph Heemann return with their diaphanous, impressionistic drone duo; their slowly evolving and enthralling works flutter and quiver with elegantly restrained, miniature sound events.
A 100 strong Feral Choir of people who’ve never improvised with their voices before, conducted by composer Phil Minton.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Like walking through the abstracted amalgamation of 30 or so storms, trays of water shaken by thunder, light bouncing off pools.
