Documentary of La Borde clinic in France and its radical politics of experimentation, in which residents and staff reciprocate in a kind of entanglement, an opening up amongst themselves.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Michael Colligan pressing white hot metal into dry ice, causing the metal to sing and scream.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
Perhaps the paradigm of America’s covert musical subculture, Sun City Girls operate just over the border of raucous delirium.
A conversation of intergenerational trans-resistance and anti-racist fierceness between two of the most inspiring public speakers we know.
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.

Two bottomless brunch writing workshops—with readings—speculating the relationship between space, infrastructure, technologies and sex.
In rethinking the body, the law, the state, gender, race, violence, care and empathy, how we might give humanness a different future?
A silent collage of found film footage partially layered with computer graphics to provide a framework in which live music can develop.
What happens when you are engaged in a deep and extended artistic practice that intersects between literature and music, notation and improvisation, sight and sound?
