Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
Improvising violinist Angharad Davies performing with pianists Tisha Mukarji and Andrea Neumann.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
“I am truly without faith. In a media marketplace that demands soulness, I can only offer soulnessless.”
Laser beam sine tones used to draw delicate, abstract patterns by vibrating charcoal, placed atop of a great strip of paper running through the gallery; beautiful, fragile sound-created autonomous drawing.
Discussion: If we approach “care as an event” rather than as a “contract of exchange” then what becomes possible in how we know, care for, and appreciate each other?
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
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.
Beat poet Ira Cohen’s now infamous and wildly psychedelic film odyssey feeds one’s own seeing apparatus through beautifully warped and distorting mylar mirrors, resulting in a film dense and rich with visual arcana and poetry.
UNINSTAL was a set of events at Tramway that tested out radical ideas with leading local and international artists. A collection of events (performances, films, installations, walks and talks) about sound and listening.
Cardboard boxes, metal guitar, critical homage, attempts to describe things you can’t describe. A one-man Grand Guignol school play.
Guitar and voice. Keening, droning and mourning. Be ready to release and bring your dis-ease.
