To Rococo Rot member Robert Lippok performing for the first time in the UK with his solo project.
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.
Could cruising and random public sex be the basis of an ethically organised society? A discussion with Jackie Wang, Samuel R. Delany and Huw Lemmey.
Inspired by Delany’s Aye, and Gomorra. A spookily filmic world where asexual bodies live in the contradiction of their unarousable loneliness and desire for intimacy and contact.
An open-ended moment in an ongoing series of films, notes, performances, diagrams and drawings which trace the questions they share. A “porous space between cinema time-space and lived time-space.”

Glasgow. Free-playing quartet of bass/ cello/ voice from The Glasgow Improvisors Orchestra and Age Of Wire & String.
Low-end drone guitarage army since 1997: nobody has done more on this occasion by a gaggle of sludge-lovers from the Scottish underground.
Work that focuses in on the static hiss and background noise of recording and pushes it to the fore.
What would a world and an ethics look like free from the destructive consequences of the Western mind?
