Merzbow takes the junk of sound and transforms it into blistering noise assaults with an incredible spectrum and impact.

A performance of Ueinzz’s new play. Each Ueinzz performance is a process of reinvention, between exhaustion and a fleeting vision: singular, collective, anonymous, plural, suspensive, intensive, unworking life.
