Why we picked it

This year’s What Is festival is a disruption: we’re testing noncompliance and are asking you to join us in practice. Or refuse: the only rule is that there are no rules. On our first night of What Is: noncompliance, artist-facilitator Aliyah Aziz guides a WORKSHOP using tape loops as an exploration of what it means to take big tech out of our perceived experiences and re-engage with our senses. The taped loops will become a meditation on unravelling sounds, an artefact of our collective static through time, and an exercise of mutual transformation. This is a low capacity workshop, tickets buyers are encouraged to not wait.  Participants are encouraged to bring their own recordings and a set of recordings will also be provided. The workshop ends in a collaborative, improvisatory jam as we create an irreproducible moment that alters the past and the future.  Workshop participants are invited
