Transfeminist, communist, revolutionary poetry that refuses to flinch. Nat Raha presents new work in the nine.
A delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).
Dworkin asks: What would a non-expressive poetry look like? A poetry of intellect rather than emotion?
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
Three different performances variously featuring: Fritz Welch, loud drums, guitar, local collaborators, paper, memories, Roland Barthes, string quartets

What might Carter and Parker’s collaboration tell us about our own performances of responsibility and liberty, whether individual, social or musical?
What’s the relationship between the eternal hum of the oceanic beloved and the persistence of vorticity in fluid dynamics? And how does Alice Coltrane’s harp help us stay there?
