Part One : They Live : While we do not exist, they are thriving and our world will soon be theirs...
The Weirdos performed as aliens in the turbulent effort of making contact and communicating with the audience (who's minds' we could read but only the first ever idea that concerned them at birth, which was to root for the nipple) with this raw information, the Weirdos as aliens perform a ritualistic dance.
'Steamy Fresh Pleasure Trip and Failed Contact' - Live performance and music - early May 2009
Part Three : Incorporeal Manifestations : Don’t fight it if you cannot comprehend it...
A dinner party is taking place between three glamorous socialites, as the evening unfolds, one guest becomes disgruntled and begins to find the whole affair rather grotesque, unleashing in the process a beast who fancies a piece of the action.

The weirdo's. They are; Gill, Caughlin, Iceland and Hudson; an all female clan.
After arriving in London to study at Central St Martins, the four girls naturally gravitated towards one another through their love of a whisky, smashing oatcakes and plenty of rammy betwixt lectures.
Their collaborations started with music, noisy music and progressed to performances, that became as legendary as their ancestors are in the Highlands.
Their first outing was by invitation at a performance night at Wolfgang Tilmans studio, and from there, they have filled the floors and screens of John Jones, Cordy house (Cosmic Mega Brain), Hackney Wicked, and Annie Sprinkle's annual wedding (colour: blue, location Grove house Oxford).
Their favourite colours are pink (Hudson), blue (Iceland), yellow (Gill) and black-out (Caughlin).
Their work spins around alien encounters, prances with time zones, unzips fruit, delivers laughter, and incites pandemonium. To arrange a meeting or a rammy : scottishweirdos@gmail.com
