Introduction
Joe Muggs

It’s déjà vu all over again. For the second year running I’m writing this intro having
just had to bail out of No Bounds at the very last minute, and for the second year
running the pangs are fearsome. More so, even. This isn’t just plain old FOMO,
either: there’s a huge tugging on my heartstrings at the realisation that I can’t join
in person something I’ve participated in and watched grow from its very first trial
weekend into the incredible nexus event it is now. I feel part of No Bounds, and it
is part of me, and the way I think about music, culture and everything else.

Last year I wrote about the bittersweet hope that the festival represented, in
particular as a symbolic rebuilding of infrastructure and connections after the
shock of Covid lockdowns. This year that hope is getting harder and harder to
access. Looking around us, threats not only to our culture but to life and limb
abound. Putin’s Fascism, red in tooth and claw, is devastating Ukraine, and his
useful idiots worldwide spread conspiracy theory in praise of brutal imperialism.
In America, Fascism creeps too with the courts striking down basic rights and
literal book-banning all too common. From Brazil to Thailand to Eritrea, threats to
freedom are proliferating – while tech giants rich enough to fix the planet are at
best indifferent to suffering and at worst cultivate it as good for business. All this
while CO2 and methane continue to billow into the ever heating atmosphere.

Here in Britain the mask of civility is long since gone from the grifters and bullies
in power – scorched earth corruption and attempts to panic-monger around the
most vulnerable barely even bother to pretend to offer fixes for our crumbling
infrastructure and economy. Fuck-witted puffing on the “war on woke” crackpipe
normalises extremist hate speech in the most mainstream of channels, corrod-
ing education and free speech with the most 1984-ish of bile, while the blaggers
in government try their hardest to chip away at the mechanisms of justice and
democracy. Poverty is rising like a tide, and our most important structures are
cracking up – not least the National Health Service which looks terrifyingly unfit
to handle another Covid wave. And our culture, still bruised from those lock-
downs, faces challenges just as harsh as fewer and fewer people can afford
tickets, travel, downloads and all the other things that keep creativity moving.

But hope IS there. Everywhere these forces are in evidence, people are fighting
them. We might not all be taking up arms to protect our homes like Ukrainians or
risking torture or death to demonstrate the simplest of freedoms like the women
and girls of Iran, but in every sphere of life, on every level, battles are afoot. There

culture matter more now than ever: while infrastructure and businesses might be
in danger, the succour and sense of connection people get from being connected
via music, art and the community around them have been electrified by stark
signals of what life might be like without them. What we do matters, all the time.

It’s tiring, though! It’s tiring even for those privileged enough to have food and
heating and a roof over their head, let alone those who have to dedicate constant
mental effort to just staying afloat. In this everthing-all-at-once weird wired
world where we can feel like we’re aware of every struggle and conflict simulta-
neously – but where misinformation is a global industry – just keeping track of
what we believe and what we’re fighting for can be overwhelming. We are just
apes, we’re not built to process this degree of planetary information.

Our culture, however, is. And especially the kind of forward-thinking grassroots
culture, not hewn to the sluggish supertankers of academia and big instutions,
that No Bounds represents. What we suffer from when we try and comprehend
the crazed information flows of the post-post-modern 21st century world is what
Alvin Toffler – that great inspiration to the original Detroit techno generation –
called Future Shock. And to deal with that shock, Toffler prescribed thinking in a
science fiction way: a way that would allow us instinctually to get to grips with the
high tech world and “cultivate the habit of anticipation” to deal with implausible
futures.

Our culture, the No Bounds culture, is rooted in mind expansion. Not only in the
conceptual artworks that will be sneaking into new spaces throughout the city
over the weekend with the theme of “Data, Architecture and Otherness”, but with
every artist playing in every context. Like those Detroit techno explorers, the
seething, multiplicitous, erratic aesthetic that joins all the artists playing here is
one that creates new futures in your brain as you’re experiencing it.

Raving to Bukem or Craig Richards or the Off Me Nut crew is as important to


that mind expansion as the opening concert which expressly addresses ques-

Misha Warren Note From Our Director
I would like to thank YOU, the No Bounds audi-
Video ence from the bottom of my heart. No Bounds is
Hayley Rawlings a labour of love for me, a passion, a feeling, an

THROUGHOUT
Luke Moody approach, something often unspoken.

Production We come together asking questions and often


Neuron AV our answers are yet more questions.

THE FESTIVAL
Mat Steel The importance in shared experience, analogue
Raze Soundsystem moment by moment reality is ever more acute
CVC as we, as a species wrestle with the fruits of
Purple Wave individualism and an ever more data driven
digital/virtual existence. Our coming together
Operations as a full festival is just once a year, but in this
Sabina Sarin weekend we share a purpose and rejoice in the
Eleanor Wienel ancient, the ritual, the communal. Remembering
Hope Works Bar Team what matters and why.

Web At least, that’s how it is for me, I dearly hope


93FT this weekend brings you a similar depth of
experience, it’s why I do it, and I feel fortunate I
still can.

We are all fortunate to be here.


Enjoy every moment.
Love and respect.
Liam O’Shea.
