Glasgow based artist Defaalt invites the audience to collaborate fully in his performance by means of a generative graphical interface.
TEST is a collective creative improvising quartet based out of the NYC Underground (figuratively and literally). Their street-hardened, spatial Jazz is riotous and intense: is also makes us think about collective organization, and different ideas of responsibility and liberty.
