Nina Power discussing November
Hito Steyerl Nina Power
Nina’s going to talk about November, by Hito Steyerl: what and how the film thinks, or about what and how it might makes us think (which is connected, but not the same thing), by watching, and it discussing (with you?).

Ecstatic, intensely joyous experimental club music: like “the sound of our water ceremonies…40 bands playing their melodies at once to recreate the cacophony of the first aurora and the call of the morning star Venus”.
Live Immersive Performance
A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
