A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!
Dead Labour Process drool-tape farmer, squeaking/creaking Usurper brother and Peeesseye’s yodelling traps-man hold a real OUT splutter party.
A kind of an informal overview of INSTAL.
Black Boned Angel’s is a rock sound, stripped of all extraneous detail right down to its core, stretched out and nailed to the ceiling.
Inhabiting a different kind of energy, Ueinzz’s open rehearsals reveal a glimpse into their ongoing daily theatrical modes of caring – multiplying the ways in which their plays are meant to be felt, rather than understood.

An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.

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”.

A simple hands on workshop with micro-radio theorist and pioneer Kogawa.
