Journalist and underground music champion Alan Cummings talks to Keiji Haino about his career and his performance the previous evening.
An open collaborative workshop space in which games, warm-up sessions, exercises and scenes are potentially the same thing, through which to project your own concerns onto the stage.

An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
