Join Ståle Holgerson to discuss his new book Against the Crisis, hosted by Glasgow Housing Struggle Archive
Vanessa Place talks at The Friday Event series at the Glasgow School of Art about her practice as a writer.
A dance party love letter to our community, expressing the joy of relation in the abstract and through actual physical proximity.
Chip will read some of his great literary pornography, which pushes sexuality to the point of extremity and exhaustion.
A performed, open, public conversation about how we might think politics from the position of intuition, in which Denise and Valentina use un-reasonable tools to map out a hybrid poetical/ ethical reading of their own situations.
In rethinking the body, the law, the state, gender, race, violence, care and empathy, how we might give humanness a different future?
Criminal Queers visualises a radical trans/queer struggle against the prison industrial complex, working to abolish the multiple ways our hearts, genders, and desires are confined.
Minimal details and otherworldly glistening drones, rich with sustained metallic timbres that breathe with the scrapped pulse of bowed metal.
Taking a scalpel to the relationship between performer and audience: cutting something out to see what’s left, a drastic subtraction and shift of emphasis.
A kind of audience activating, structured film guessing game in the manipulation of time, sound and image. “At 11:15, weiners. At 21:05, pornography. At 23:30, a duet. Watch the Clock.”
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.
“I am truly without faith. In a media marketplace that demands soulness, I can only offer soulnessless.”
