- **Event Name**: Saul Williams Meets Carlos Nino | RISING 2026 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 05 Jun, 2026 at 10:00 am (+10:00)
- **Event Description**: Legendary Saul Williams and his percussionist-producer comrade Carlos Niño bring their angry and eloquent set of jazz-poetry down from the mountains and into the Melbourne Recital Centre. 

The set was a return of sorts for Williams, who helped popularise slam poetry in the late 90s with the film SLAM (which he wrote and performed in), before becoming one of hip hop’s most formidable poets.  

In this collaboration, he pushes back past hip hop into older black oral traditions, with words that sprawl like a cosmic vista— his septet creating beds of electro-acoustic improvisation that rise and fall with the power of the words.
