A memory tape from the past, pointing toward the future. Desert winds along the highway.

Something Other Live is a series of experimental writing and performance events which act as companions to each themed Chapter published by Something Other collective.

Something Other’s upcoming event follows a call out on circularity, searching for queer ways of occupying the present and its differences. This will unfold as a collective listening event online.

Please join us here on Tuesday 5th May 8pm as we gather to listen to sounds from: Alexandra Baybutt, Barbara Bridger and Hari Marini, Karen Christopher, Sabrina Fuller, Laurel Jay Carpenter, Eirini Kartsaki, Ben Kulvichit and Nat Norland, Marianne Habeshaw, Christina Lovey, Libby Scarlette & Caridad Svich.

In The Motion of Waves Sabrina Fuller layers voices and memories of feminisms and freedoms.

Sabrina Fuller is interested in how groups and individuals respond and react to society’s expectations: how objectification and exclusion from mainstream society can give license to chart other ways of being, and how a classification as Other allows a freedom to develop the language of difference and form unlikely alliances. She works with still and moving image, voice, sound and the written word and is committed to working collectively, participatively and collaboratively.

The A10/Kingsland Road (a selection from) is a performative meditation on time, place, memory and affect.

Dr Christina Lovey is a performance artist working with text, photography and film, rhythm tap dance and ritual. Her work considers experience and uses multiple modes to re-present aspects of experience. Christina studied performance art at Middlesex and worked in applied theatre, before lecturing and tutoring – she currently tutors neurodivergent learners at Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, while maintaining her own diverse art practice. Christina gained a PhD from University of Brighton in 2016 – her phenomenological practice-led research project considered the liminal experience of grief and its re-presentation in film. Her current research interests include somaesthetics, performative writing, shamanism and its relationship to artmaking, and auto-ethnography/place.

Němaɲa is a reflection on memory, friendship and not letting go.

Alexanda Baybutt works in art, movement education, and research. Recent creations include a PhD on the imperceptible politics of festival curation in the former Yugoslav space. She sustains collaborations across Europe with choreographer Stephanie Felber, and with artist Ivan Mijačević, and works as a dramaturg with choreographer Tania Soubry.

In This is not the performance I had in mind (a recorded version of the text Wingman day one and beyond), circularity works in the form of returns–returns to a place, to a conversation, to an idea–and the swirl patterns produced by those returns.

Karen Christopher is a collaborative performance maker, performer, and teacher. She recently relocated from London to her new studio in Faversham where her company, Haranczak/Navarre Performance Projects, continues to focus on collaborative processes. She is devoted to paying attention as a practice of social cooperation. Karen was with Chicago-based Goat Island performance group for 20 years until the group disbanded in 2009. Her practice includes listening for the unnoticed, the almost invisible, and the very quiet.

On completing a form for movement.

Diana Damian Martin is an artist and researcher, and one of the co-hosts of Something Other.
