Ray and Thomas talking about how cognitive neuroscience is unlocking the physical basis of personal experience.

A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.

The Truth and Lies book project emerges as part of a rising tide of sex worker art and organised struggle to end criminalisation and stigmatisation of sex work.
