“This is a truly immersive story of the ship’s life at sea. Working with poet Saili Katebe and composer Joe Acheson, Limbic Cinema will transform the dry dock where the ship now lies into a huge digital projection theatre, filled with the energy of the world’s underwater oceans. For the first time in fifty years the sights, sounds and movement of a living sea will surround the ship’s hull.”

“Born from the bog of South London in 2016 and have been Relentlessly playing racous gigs across the UK since then. After a period of self-exile and sound reinvention, Peeping Drexels have been reborn as an entirely new creature, releasing their first chapter - the ‘Bad Time’ EP to critical acclaim in May 2021.”

“DJ Food is an electronic music project currently headed by Kevin Foakes (also known as "Strictly Kev"). Originally conceived by the members of Coldcut on the Ninja Tune independent record label, the project started in 1990 on the premise of providing metaphorical "food for DJs". DJ Food released the Jazz Brakes series, with Jazz Brakes Volume 3 being the most successful. The records consisted of collections of breaks, loops and samples that could be used for mixing, remixing and producing. With nearly 25 years of DJing experience and more than a decade serving up Food for DJs, for both Ninja and Coldcut's weekly radio show 'Solid Steel', Kev is now in the Food hot seat.”
