sneek previews of some of the raw footage plus a film making workshop

Brother' harresment of the Wombles, 'Sky Roma' a rather amusing video

soap opera called western culture by Corneilius Lookwood. The Lower
Depths will bring the punk into the rampart. Stomp your feet to the
pogo and then dance to DavidCronenberg'sWife. After that, an
electronic live music with Surge. Both technology and emotions are
included in his highly danceble set.

On the turntables:
DJane Sexyrubbersole from the WomensAnarchistNuissanceCafe with her
vibrant dNb vibes, Anarchist electro grrrl pop and punk with DJane
Mondstrom from Germany and last but not least from old skool funk at
its best to new beats with DJ Milo.

TRAPESE Roadshow with Schnews at Ten

TRAPESE is on the road to inform and mobilise people to take positive
action around the issues behind the G8 through workshops and events in
social spaces. Having travelled the length and breadth of the country,
TRAPESE comes rolling into London on 23rd April.

What goes on under the TRAPESE big-top? Renewable energies, popular
education, alternative medias and grassroots participation are our
thing.

Oil fuelled profit crazy big Corp government, not. So, roll up for the
flight of the TRAPESE, flying through the high ether of climate
change, oil-war, the G8 and civil disobedience, crashing spectacularly
to the ground with a selection of interactive workshops, a pub quiz
and short
films.

Stick around later for the Schnews at Ten party, with bar, DJs, live
music and a possible appearance by the infamous Jazz Terrorists.
