Summer Solstice hang out IRL and URL on 21 June
A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.
Trans-temporal drag, sexuality and the re-staging of illegible moments in history.
The ongoing development of [b]reach, an abolitionist black queer retelling of Marge Piercy’s incredible feminist utopian novel Woman on the Edge of Time.
A performed, open, public conversation about how we might think politics from the position of intuition, in which Denise and Valentina use un-reasonable tools to map out a hybrid poetical/ ethical reading of their own situations.
A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
How do communities practice being one another’s means, addressing their material problems facing them replicating the state’s violent logic of who is disposable.
Nina’s going to talk about November, by Hito Steyerl: what and how the film thinks, or about what and how it might makes us think (which is connected, but not the same thing), by watching, and it discussing (with you?).
Three speakers play back pre-recorded sounds, Marc listens and responds: “What is played is the imperfect witness of what I listen to (or maybe better, how I listen).”
Jandek’s first ever live performance. Unannounced, the performance was a total surprise for everybody at the festival.
A three-day celebration surveying all manner of diverse musical activities, which at their core share a basic kinship: one of exploration and the discovery of musical expresssion.
