ACMI Nights: The Future and Other Fictions

ACMI is Melbourne’s museum of screen culture, fostering the next gen of players, makers and watchers. And Broadsheet Access members can score a complimentary double pass to its latest wacky event – ACMI Nights: The Future & Other Fictions.

Expect a line-up of nine innovative performances, a pop-up arcade, a cocktail bar and a lively dance floor. Plus, wander through the exhibit, featuring Serwah Attafuah’s five-screen artwork The Darkness Between the Stars and the neon-lit The Future & Other Fictions.

As the name suggests, the event spotlights future-focused creatives who are redefining art at the intersection of culture, tech and music. Expect sets from:

• Tina Disco: a DJ fusing ’90s electro with her Latina heritage.
• MaggZ: a movement artist specialising in waacking, a freestyle dance from the 1970s disco era of LA.
• Nū: an Ethiopian Australian sound artist and live coder who’ll be improvising sonic experiences.
• Brown Suga Princess: a DJ blending South Asian sounds, footwork, jungle and heavy bass.
• Christopher Gurusamy: an Australian Indian dancer, drawing from Hindu philosophy.
• Kieran Butler: a creative producer working across various tactile mediums to explore queer identity.
