Zaratan invites you to the performance Sagittarius A or the days outside*, an activation of the eponymous book published by Bestiário.

Near one of Jupiter's moons, a certain Portuguese astronaut has an accident while attempting to repair his ship and is shot into the sidereal void, in the approximate direction of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, Sagittarius A*. With only thirty minutes of oxygen left, he decides to "talk until death," followed by a psychotic vociferation that bitterly bids farewell to the increasingly distant point of light.

In this presentation, António Pedro Marques gives voice and body to the reading of the text, while the duo SLUG builds, in real-time, a soundscape of unbearable noise that serves as a shroud for this space burial.

The book is a Bestiário edition, with a cover based on a work by AN AX and layout by Bruno Inácio.
