A carefully thought out, simple but rich performance using just a turntable, teach yourself foreign language LP’s, the impeccable timing of a percussionist, and an idea.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.

The queer archiving of traumatic cultural memory from one of the leading voices working with queer archives.
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
Social and party with all proceeds going to the Unity Centre, featuring DJ SETS with Dj@Christelle, DJ D-Harsh, Nena Etza & Moor Mother.
To Rococo Rot member Robert Lippok performing for the first time in the UK with his solo project.
Joe Colley specialises in hotwired sound constructions full of ominous electronic disturbances and caustic, noxious drones. For KYTN, Joe created a situation of controlled chaos with 50 light sensitive oscillators placed in a field of candles.
