The premiere of Against All Logic (Nicolás Jaar’s musical alias) and Liminal Soundbath (Jónsi from Sigur Rós and his collaborator Alex Somers).

Creative Director, Hannah Fox says that while the event seems like the “most unlikely program” they could’ve dreamt up, that’s just how it evolved.

“Intentionally or otherwise, the artists in our seventh festival have become connected through emerging themes of simulated, mediated and real violence, extinction and the supernatural.

“The music program is huge and layered,” she said.
