Three speakers play back pre-recorded sounds, Marc listens and responds: “What is played is the imperfect witness of what I listen to (or maybe better, how I listen).”

Summer Solstice hang out IRL and URL on 21 June
A series of reality dramas happening over the course of the weekend.
Post consideration and post rationalisation… How do we think about experimental music and film after the performance?
A performed filmic conversation on queer and black world making.
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.

Folk poet, actor and bon viveur Kan Mikami in duo with Jojo Hiroshige, a founding member of Japanese Noise band Hijokaidan.
A bodiless treatise on narration, bored speakers, audience misbehaviour and police megaphones, but: is anybody listening?
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.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
