An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.

Koji Asano, Japanese composer and sound-artist performing slow groaning burbling tones, moaning echoes and drones.

Captures the creak and rustle of the forest, with an exhilarating tension let loose in unconfined maniacal and bare-knuckle group thinking.
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
AMM have undoubtedly been among the most important contributors to the UK free improv scene for nearly 40 years and we are extremely proud to be able to be working with such distinguished musicians who still rarely play live in the UK.

Copying without Copying is 3 evenings of events that are about what happens when we speak, or when we hear someone speak on our behalf, when we share a collective moment of hearing and maybe understanding.
Profound mathematical ideas for romantics, to help us linger in the difference we share.
A festival hewn from passions for experimental music, film and visual art and for a passion in figuring out how they can relate to, cross-fertilise and inspire and each other.
