Long review of the incredible TUFFEST day and night events. Photos from TUF members Valerie Calano and Jen Greene.
Love this description of Elysia Crampton's set: 

"It was past 9pm when she started weaving a fragmented tapestry of feral beats, live vocals and keys, and pop cultural references, all nightmarishly contorted and sonically rich. Coiled into her set were shards of words that were deeply political and personal: a quote from a Bolivian trans activist, a futuristic folktale about a trans justice movement from Latin America, and a poem about finding love amidst modern colonialism."
