Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in a remote sea cave near Durness.
Transfeminist and revolutionary poetry, voice and timbral abstraction: a sounding and spatialising of reparative sonic and somatic practices that can speak back to violent histories of expropriation and ecocide.
A performed lecture concerned with Renaissance occult (musical) thinkers of the cosmic who put forward the notion of the “disharmony of the world”
An introduction to gender and embodiment for cisgender folk (i.e. those whose experience aligns with their assigned gender). This will look at the ways our embodied experiences are shaped by our gender, and explore what it means to support trans siblings in practice. This session will be led by Tripod.
For day two of Ultra-red’s project, the investigation will take up protocols for listening to the sound of freedom composed and facilitated by the Vogue’ology collective.

Can we use sound, repetition and difference to personally and collectively engage with space, time and labour?
A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.
A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
Instead of the one-way monologue of normal performance, what would be the result of an actual collective dialogue? Where would it go?
