Here's the stellar launch night line up
Holly Graham | I am a London-based artist, working predominantly with print and audio. Much of my work looks at ways in which memory and narrative shape collective histories. I am interested in tracing how memory fragments form and regroup to enable shifting understandings of identity. | hollygraham.co.uk/
Daniela Dyson | "Daniela Dyson is a British Afro-Colombian artist/poet, DJ and PMS Casualty. She creates vignettes of the motherland that depict myth and brujería as well as discussing diaspora, micro-aggressions, love, sex and millennial neurosis." | <A HREF="https://www.instagram.com/pmscasualty/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.instagram.com/pmscasualty/</A>
Pravanya Pillay | For a performance like marmite (yeasty) that leaves you wondering: “did I hate that?”. Pravanya Pillay’s surreal, absurdist humour is always silly, always fun and always a bit pointless. Critics say “well she’s having a good time”, “wow, that’s a lot of energy”, “it’s nice to see an Indian girl with so much confidence” | twitter.com/pravanyapillay
Jo Kimber | "I write plays, screenplays, zines, short stories. Observing, listening and research are key in my approach. I write to process the world around me and am keen to make sense of that world through a narrative. I am always searching and striving for the emotional truth in my writing, whether through comedy or drama or a mixture of both." | jokimber.com
 
 
Here's a bit more about the event
Each performer has a 10 minute set to perform any work of their choosing. Each performer also has two guest passes for the performance space - in this case, it's an online videoconference! This little gang of artsits and their audience will be livestreamed to YouTube: <A HREF="https://youtu.be/49-my_uVXno" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://youtu.be/49-my_uVXno</A>
 
Here's a bit more about the creative tech twist (it's a WIP!)
<OL>
<LI>Performers choose a segment of their performance to record.</LI>
<LI>This is turned into a digital audio clip and sent as a voice note to the performers to use and share as they wish.</LI>
<LI>The audio is also tagged to physical postcards, uniquely designed for the grapevine night.</LI>
<LI>These postcards are sent out to audience members* and performers, who can also unlock the audio performance from this printed memento. All you need to unlock the postcard is a messaging app, like WhatsApp or Telegram.</LI>
</OL>
 
All that's left to say is, this is a new format we're developing at Grapevine and we would love feedback. Hope you enjoy this first iteration!

*Only audience members who have bought a donation ticket will be sent a postcard.
