Discussion: If we approach “care as an event” rather than as a “contract of exchange” then what becomes possible in how we know, care for, and appreciate each other?
Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
A panel exploring the radical potential of technologies through fugitivity and opacity: their ability to obscure, to make it impossible for us to be known, to render us untraceable by every arm of the state even under the all-consuming spectre of surveillance capital.
A system in which oscillators shake The Arches, seismographs pick up the harmonics that are then amplified through massive sub-bass PA.
All ticket income goes directly to We Will Rise – a group of migrants, refugees, asylum seekers and their allies who have come together to End Immigration Detention in the UK.
Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.

Seven women recite monologues composed from texts from the vibrant years of the Weimar Republic. A kind of cultural echo: an experience of histories brought to the present.
