It's a performance, which is also a lecture, which is something else entirely. Overlays of memories and volcanoes. Street culture and entangled nature. Clubbing spaces for a single body. Crowded imagery for a lonely space. Tissue, from Fascia to Cosmos. Oracles for never-ending parties. To (dis)solve the world into full nothingness.
