A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
Watching films and chatting with Karrabing members about those films: as they attend to the memory and practice of the ancestral present and the ancestral catastrophe that Karrabing and their more-than-human world find themselves facing.
A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
Jandek’s first ever live performance. Unannounced, the performance was a total surprise for everybody at the festival.
