Final workshop exploring work, care and class. Does the ‘care industry’ summon forth its own class? Can this ‘affective class’, in their ability to care for others, militate against the carelessness of self-interest?
The most sophisticated synthetic music around: timbrally otherwise body music as sonified fictions and auditive sociograms.

Percussion used to explore the social construction of space
A party and fundraiser to support Sex Workers’ struggles and LGBT Unity with music and performances from the sex workers’ community and allies, plus DJ’s and dancing.

What does it mean to listen with the mind as well as the ears? A solo performance from the great avant-garde pianist.
