JITTERS

Limbo for the soul! How low can you go? If you're into leather, then this is for you. This is all for you. For you. This is for you. This is for alcoholics, anarcho-punks, BDSMs, beatniks, bimbos, bible-bashers, bin-dippers, bikers, bi-sexuals, bodybuilders, bohemians, bosozokus, the cacophony society, casuals, chongas, cleaners, crusties, cyber-goths, dancers, dandies, dark culture, deaf culture, demo-scensters, doomsters, druggies, emos, fanatics, fetishists, fairies, flagellants, freaks, fruits, furry fans, gays, geeks, glam rockers, glopniks, ghostfaces, goths, gothlolis, greasers, groovies, grungers, gutter-punks, hackers, hardcore-punks, hardliners, heavy-metal-heads, hip-hoppers, hippies, hipsters, idiots, I love you, it's for you, it's for you, it's for you, it's for you, jitters, jihadis, jocks, jugglers, junglists, lesbians, lighthouse-keepers, long-ears, loners, mangas, mods, metalcores, military brats, new agers, new romantics, neo-romantics, neo-neos, nerds, noctules, nocturnes, northern souls, nudists, odd-balls, otakus, otherkins, pachuos, piperstrelles, pokemons, the polyamorous, preppies, punks, quacks, queers, ravers, refusniks, riot grrrls, rivet-heads, rockabillies, rockers, role-players, rude boys. satanists, sci-fi fans, scooter boys, scouts, sex workers, skaters, skinheads, soulboys, spies, steampunks, stoics, straight edgers, surfers, survivalists, swing kids, swingers, teenyboppers, teddy boys, thugs, toilet-talkers, tran-sexuals, trekkies, trolls, vampires, vloggers, video gamers, worms, and zazous. This is all for you. However you make your marginalisation work. You're low and alone. You're up late. I'm low and alone. I'm up late. And in the only magical way possible, through this detached medium of radio, we are alone together. This is for you. This is all for you. Where are the jitters now? Who's jittering now? Where are you now? All alone at home? Walking alone by the lake? Stillness at the lake. Stillness. Stillness before the bats flash past you. The bats. Flap. Flash. Imagine the bats. Imagine the bats.

Skelf is a virtual project space, accessible to anyone, everywhere.

Existing entirely online since 2016, we have presented work by over 120 artists and writers on our virtual platform. You can view these works in our archive. In 2019 we launched a series of eight quarterly group exhibitions, each presented by a different guest curator and accompanied by a podcast by Mark Beldan. You can listen, download or subscribe to the podcast below - or through your usual podcast supplier.


We are delighted to have been funded by Arts Council England and over the next two years will be working with artists whose work employs gesture, touch or movement and exploring how these physically-orientated practices could be translated into a virtual experience. New work will be on the site from Spring 2021.
