Paper Piece: Secrets is a performance for and with the whole audience, using paper, text, secrets, being in the crowd

Edinburgh. Cask-strength electrohypnol and shroom damaged folk croonings by Lapsed Electronics empire builder.
Heat-mapped bodies, found porn films, Korean psyche-folk, creepy police intrusion and self-defence.
Investigating the border between the audible and the visible means looking at the margins, the edges of creativity where artists test out new boundaries and define them anew.
