Katz Mulk
Katz Mulk is a performance collective featuring Andrea Kearney, Ben Knight, Ben Morris, and Siân Williams. Their work pulls together crude electronics, field recordings, narrative fragments, dance, and sculptural interventions to create a sticky radiophonic syrup. Katz Mulk will present work-in-progress ahead of their residency at Chapter Arts (Cardiff).

Live room mics, tape and computer manipulation are used to exchange material.
