A delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).
To Rococo Rot member Robert Lippok performing for the first time in the UK with his solo project.
One of the most startling cinematic debuts on record, The Flicker is more a hallucination than a film, an out of body experience and riotous celebration of visual harmonics frequencies. An experiment in perception, come with your mind and eyes open.
Freeform Super 8mm documentation of Saturday at Instal 06 by filmmaker Matt Hulse.
Solo by Jean-Philippe Gross, a French electro-acoustic improviser, working with mixing board, cheap mics, small speakers and an analog synth, built around a honed interest in feedback.
An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
Where we join Nackt Insecten’s disembodied spectral howls and heavyweight locomotive drones about SPT’s Subway.

Thuja specialise in a unique and abstract folk music, a devoutly organic tapestry deeply rooted in the sway and bow of nature.

A sound diffusion piece by Glasgow University’s Musica Electronica, and a further selection of electroacoustic performances.
