Three workshops lead up to an open invitation to improvise with the festival as concert.

From there anything could happen.
Three iconic figures from the Japanese underground assembled as a trio to stand in for the advertised duo of Junko and Jerome Noetinger who was unable to attend the festival due to illness.
