Episode 3: Copying without Copying

Mar 2012
 / Glasgow

Copying without Copying is 3 evenings of events that are about what happens when we speak, or when we hear someone speak on our behalf, when we share a collective moment of hearing and maybe understanding.

Episode 1: A Film is a Statement

Jan 2012
 / Glasgow

Every aspect of every film is always about more than just film.  Or, as Godard said: a tracking shot is a moral issue. A cross between a festival, magazine and discussion about experimental artists’ films.

About Arika

 

  1. Provocative, iconoclastic, sophisticated art, discussion and social interaction...

    —Ed Baxter
    Resonance 104.4 FM

We organise experimental music, film and art events.  We’ve been doing that since 2001.  We’re interested in those artforms as ways of thinking, and as useful ways to engage with the world.  We’re interested in how music and film can develop though interaction with radical practices in other disciplines: artistic and non-artistic alike.
