An improvisation that may or may not involve (typical) improvisation.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
What does it mean to resist seeking assimilation or inclusion within, or let our demands be co-opted by the very systems we seek to dismantle?
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.

Sachiko’s very simple, pure sine tones and structures. Otomo on double pianos. Filament’s music isn’t composed and it isn’t improvised: it’s a hybrid of the two.
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.
Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
