Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in a large multi chambered industrial ice house.
How can we imagine bodies not as an end in themselves, but as a medium through which we can become one another’s means?
The most sophisticated synthetic music around: timbrally otherwise body music as sonified fictions and auditive sociograms.
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
A specially commissioned performance for organ. “The course of the stars were to be put to sound.”
An evening extravaganza celebrating the London launch of Truth & Lies: an Anthology of Writing and Art by Sex Workers
Expect slutty DJs, playful performances, stripper poles, rococo cakes, union broads and intimate readings…
Do ideas emerging from particle physics help to re-think of blackness as a mode of life in which it’s possible to practice difference without separation?
This closing session will be a space for reflection and feedback. We can discuss ways we can share what we’ve learned and explored with our wider communities. We can talk about if we want to do more sessions and /or projects together.
Inspired by the supernatural horror of H. P. Lovecraft, black metal and a sense of worry as to what constitutes an object, or a world.
A recreation of one of Gustav Metzger’s celebrated auto destructive performances.
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.
