A conversation of intergenerational trans-resistance and anti-racist fierceness between two of the most inspiring public speakers we know.
ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
A conversation and livestream considering a global feminist critique of capital with Silvia Federici, Hortense Spillers and Gayatri C. Spivak.
TEST is a collective creative improvising quartet based out of the NYC Underground (figuratively and literally). Their street-hardened, spatial Jazz is riotous and intense: is also makes us think about collective organization, and different ideas of responsibility and liberty.

An LSD trip gone right via dense explorations of post-Fahey steel and low level drone.
A chat with Rashad about the communist, conceptual methodology that informs his ground-breaking synthetic music—a form of speculative sonic fiction writing to produce hyperreal non-representational auditive experiences.
