Edinburgh. Sinewave manipulating Giant Tank-ette goes head-to-head with Decaer Pinga’s first lady of noise.

Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.
Transfeminist, communist, revolutionary poetry that refuses to flinch. Nat Raha presents new work in the nine.
