(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
A sung-through Nubian musical ballet. A darkly humorous take on sexual trauma and what magical and ancestral tools might heal it.
Minimal details and otherworldly glistening drones, rich with sustained metallic timbres that breathe with the scrapped pulse of bowed metal.
Glasgow. Low-end drone guitarage army in praise of the open chord.
Improvising using nothing so much as the passage of time as his instrument, Basinski creates works of great melancholic depth and fragile beauty.
Come for the crip ingenuity; stay for the smooth feels of what it is to be each other’s everything.
Improvising violinist Angharad Davies performing with pianists Tisha Mukarji and Andrea Neumann.

An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
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.
