RUGGINE is a crip-pop performance and concert— an open-air dérive where robots and heartbeats meet, mingle, and flirt. Alice Giuliani invites visual artist Winju, blending their respective practices to investigate shared fascinations with hybrid, cyborg, and non-conforming bodies. Original music is composed and produced by Gintsugi, shaping an auditory landscape where glitch, pop, and lullaby collide.

In this universe, organisms live a hybrid existence—of flesh and emotional prosthetics, generating new constellations of kinship. Metallic rhythms and whispered melodies blur into each other, creating a soundscape of soft aggression and intimate rebellion. Some beings bear their metal visibly—grafted onto limbs, gleaming along the spine. Others carry it discreetly, hidden in posture or breath. Who are they? Alix-Spoonix a cyber-ballerina and high-pitched singer, Winju – a metal sculptor and eternal teenager, forging tenderness from steel.
