Sets up residencies at Tate Modern called Beats and Boards and at 180 Studios using the OJ sound system, runs listening sessions that start at about 40 attendees, insists on strictly vinyl DJ sets for ~40 minutes, documents a 100-year-old saxophonist Marshall Allen with 14 hours of footage after a BBC rejection, and makes the specific case that long-form cultural gatherings counter algorithm-driven short-form attention and restore human connection.
