Money is as innocent as the Sun:
Story, verse and poetry that take a sideways shufty at that species distinguishing, humanity extinguishing tendency: abstraction, made flesh in that filthy, grubby legal tender trap.
A playful excavation, unearthing that unconscionable truth; we really need to start getting our hands dirty if we are to discover and save ourselves as a life on this earth.
‘Hypnotic, dazzling, inspiring, funny and beautiful. The craft is out of this world. The heart of it beats like a kick drum. The message is spot on, and the medium is perfect. Go see it.’
Andrew O’Neill
‘There are a lot of spoken word artists who play with a backup band of some kind. Not so many that do both spoken word and music at the same time — and do both things brilliantly. Geoff Winde might just be the
philosopher-poet-musician you didn’t know you were looking for.’

We are delighted to be working with Edinburgh Climate Coalition to host The Oil Machine.

Join us for a screening of this compelling film. Come and discuss why the end of oil is crucial to all of us and discuss how we can build a resilient future.
