A parody of a (Manhattan) road movie and meditation on bifurcation, in paths traveled between the seen and the heard; a road trip played over and over from different perspectives.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
Minimal details and otherworldly glistening drones, rich with sustained metallic timbres that breathe with the scrapped pulse of bowed metal.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
Durational group-mind drone and clatter: bamboo, electronics, the contents of your local ironmongers bin. A 3-hour set from this legendary Japanese improvisation group.
4 days of workshops, discussions and artists presentations exploring the radical act of caring for each other while working to change the world.
Sex worker only Collective Art Workshop led by the Hard Labour project from Scotland for Decrim.
A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
