What does it mean to listen with the mind as well as the ears? A solo performance from the great avant-garde pianist.
A sound diffusion piece by Glasgow University’s Musica Electronica, and a further selection of electroacoustic performances.
If life is assaulted by power, where do we find spaces for living? A conversation with Peter Pál Pelbart.
A spectacular musical show which discusses the representation of a nation state, its characters and history. A learning play on myth construction and its reproduction.
A speculative narrative film informed by poetry and theories of quantum entanglement across diasporic distance. An intimate exploration of grief and resistance in shifting landscapes of loss, from the streets to the bed.
Terry is one of the most entertaining and unpredictable musicians in the London free improvising music scene. Rhodri Davies extends his instrument under a battery of techniques creating sound colours and textures quite alien to the harp.
Solo organ performance by German composer Eva-Maria Houben, which focuses on ‘nearly nothing’ to expand the way we listen.
In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.
(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
Christian Bök‘s work spans thrillingly conceptual poetry to body-shaking vocal performances.
A performed self-cancelling discussion, with artists from the festival, invited speakers and local artists talking at once, over each other, or straining to be heard over the din.
Over 3 days Episode 8 celebrates all the unruly ways we escape attempts to constrain us, tear down the walls of normative culture and build joy in flight.
