ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.

In a moment of social exhaustion, we want to ask how we might care for each other differently. We Can’t Live Without Our Lives is a 5-day exploration of care as a form of struggle and resistance, with communities who embody it.
