Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.
During Episode 9 we made this clip with Storyboard P at Kinning Park Complex. Video by Ash Reid.
Christian Bök‘s work spans thrillingly conceptual poetry to body-shaking vocal performances.
Usurper jamming live in a skip at the site of Bud’s Neill’s Lobey Dosser statue on Woodlands Road.
Profound mathematical ideas for romantics, to help us linger in the difference we share.
Goodwin’s writing emanates from the social life of poetry, from a condition of entanglement before historically racially-specific forms of representation. Another word for this emanation is breath.

Location: between: the abandoned site of Parker House (ex-council office building) that became a student accommodation regeneration project, off the Dudhope roundabout; Bell Street Car Park entrance ramp and; the awkward (and otherwise used/ used otherwise) space left over between the back of Tesco’s and DW Sports on the Murraygate.
A performance for projectionist, musicians and audience, which plays with references to Oscar Levant and Gershwin: apparently a series of small doses of chaos.
A series of reality dramas happening over the course of the weekend.
