_TEAM ROCKIT—( b.∞) Puppets on a quest to meet their maker, imagined into existence by something beyond the veil. Random to some, obvious to some. Baroque-punk, euro abyss, hybrid folk. Our three companions just calls it Team Rockit.

As the eternal return restarts once more, Team Rockit is born again. Their 3rd album is set to be released in 2017

EVENING STANDARD SERIES
The Platform Stockholm “Evening Standard Series” promotes the party as a form of social engagement analogous to the exhibition. These events are successful as parties if they are successful as exhibitions, and vice versa. Events in the series interrogate the social; they are focused on what happens between people. The artwork is inseparable from the event, and the event is inseparable from the people attending it.
