A bodiless treatise on narration, bored speakers, audience misbehaviour and police megaphones, but: is anybody listening?
A collaborative duo performance, Anoyonodekigoto sets up a sort of negotiation between a musician, a dancer, the audience and the space we’re all sharing.
Out of a dark haze, shafts of lights are picked out from the surface of film. Out of the black silence, noise, audible scratches bloom into a bright drone of broken and cracked objects.
Disused railway turning circle at east end of Union Terrace Gardens, a historically public space at the centre of a regeneration land-grab for the private gain of a local petro-chemical magnate.
One of the most arresting and unique improvisers in Japan, creating an original and powerful body of free music.

Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
An open-ended moment in an ongoing series of films, notes, performances, diagrams and drawings which trace the questions they share. A “porous space between cinema time-space and lived time-space.”
Morgan Fisher is a filmmaker of great wit and charm who uses the tools of experimental film to dissect the basic presuppositions of commercial cinema.
