Like walking through the abstracted amalgamation of 30 or so storms, trays of water shaken by thunder, light bouncing off pools.

A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis

Dual projections of pulsating shards of film, treated in crystallized salts and dyes merge with the whirring of projectors, distilled into particles of sound.
Ex Ganger guitarist’s solo performance for guitar and fx, featuring breathless processed guitar, complex in structure and melody.
