A joyful conversation discussing disability, gender transition and care labour as expressions of virtuosic and innovative skills that make care – good care – possible.

A collaborative social justice project that uses art, activism and awareness to combat the systemic oppression facing young, trans, queer & gender nonconforming people of colour.

A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
