Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in a large multi chambered industrial ice house.
Dual projections of pulsating shards of film, treated in crystallized salts and dyes merge with the whirring of projectors, distilled into particles of sound.
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
A preposterously heavy, eye of the storm musical tug of war, in which two drummers, electronics and electric guitar fall over each other in a droning crush.
Inspired by the supernatural horror of H. P. Lovecraft, black metal and a sense of worry as to what constitutes an object, or a world.

An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
Patented 60 cycle hums, static pops, and terse electron pinpricks mutated into perfect, post-techno grooves and synaesthesic video
I wanna be with you everywhere was a gathering of, by, and for disabled artists and writers and anyone who wanted to get with us for a series of crip meet-ups, performances, readings and other social spaces of surplus, abundance and joy.
