An extravagant debauch of huge pianos, plush toys, cognac and ritual.
Dworkin asks: What would a non-expressive poetry look like? A poetry of intellect rather than emotion?
Reading their letters to each other, and chatting about prefigurative politics as the practice of relentlessly building worlds through unspeakable violence and loss; of building worlds and living in them anyway.
CCI Sound system: a performance in which new material will be mixed and phased between two huge PA’s, one a precise Meyer system, the other a huge wall of Marshall amps

Hartmut led “a workshop in the old-fashioned way of discussion, mutual exploration of ideas and samples; trying out what can be shared and where the fault lines show.”

A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!
