Last month we held a party to celebrate 100 years of William S Burroughs. We just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the weird and wonderful citizens of Interzone who attended the production and helped support the event. Special thanks goes out to all the fantastic performers, musicians, sound, lighting and production crews, set/prop makers, artists, our costume designer, the venue and everyone who gave their time! Check out the brilliant teaser film of the event shot and edited by Gabriela Jones with additional footage by Florencia Caputo. (or view on http://youtu.be/bKxSvlMYJaA).

"Burroughs the legendary writer is not simply a writer. This event by the same token is not simply an event. Because, he himself, was a deconstruct-er of labels. This event, endorsed by his estate, evades definition....in the best of ways" - God Is In The TV

Terra Audio performed a very special live set at Interzone and have recently broadcast it on Resonance FM (104.4 FM) - We have an exclusive copy for your listening ears!
The set is an 'evocative picture of the life and times of writer and resistance troop William Burroughs, from his beginnings in St Louis 100 years ago, to radioactive days, silence and psychic adventure in Morocco, the use of words to create a cultural revolution, the opening of doors to knowledge, resistance, and, finally, love.'
'The show features recordings of Burroughs, and friends and contemporaries such as Allen Ginsberg, Paul Bowles, Terence McKenna, Sun Ra, Robert Anton Wilson, and in particular Brion Gysin, all set to an experimental music soundtrack.
The Third Mind techniques of juxtaposition and cut-up developed by Gysin, Burroughs, and Ian Sommerville are applied to the source material.'
