Do ideas emerging from particle physics help to re-think of blackness as a mode of life in which it’s possible to practice difference without separation?
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
A voice that can vault from an elegantly whispered insinuation to asphyxiated and murderous barks or squalls in a heartbeat.
Vajra are a Japanese psychedelic rock supergroup, hewn from the collective consciousness of Fushitsusha’s Keiji Haino, folk radical Kan Mikami and percussionist Toshiaki Ishitsuka.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Transfeminist and revolutionary poetry, voice and timbral abstraction: a sounding and spatialising of reparative sonic and somatic practices that can speak back to violent histories of expropriation and ecocide.
Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
Multiple images, glimpses of old films, abstract images in the midst of an electro-acoustic sound field of tape loops & analogue synthesizers
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.
An open collaborative workshop space in which games, warm-up sessions, exercises and scenes are potentially the same thing, through which to project your own concerns onto the stage.
