Two bottomless brunch writing workshops—with readings—speculating the relationship between space, infrastructure, technologies and sex.
This programme is a celebration of Charlemagne Palestine; passionate, extravagant, visceral. Including two sections from Ritual dans le Vide, an extension of his ‘running camera’ works of the 70’s and Pip Chodorov’s vibrant workout of a live version of Strumming Music.
An LSD trip gone right via dense explorations of post-Fahey steel and low level drone.

A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
