Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
Fernando thinks that when maths is deep, it should be simple and able to be explained by hand gestures. By embodying ideas, we’re able to more clearly think about their cultural implications.
Glasgow. Low-end drone guitarage army in praise of the open chord.
Instead of the one-way monologue of normal performance, what would be the result of an actual collective dialogue? Where would it go?
Come for the crip ingenuity; stay for the smooth feels of what it is to be each other’s everything.
UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
Juliana’s performances chart the dissonant space and discrepancy between the presumed fixed norms of social life and the fluid lived experience those norms don’t allow for.

Radu plays a trombone, Klaus creates pure sine waves: they sound on their own, or sometimes together and often with considerable space and silence.
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A 3-day exploration – through performance, screenings and discussion – of the art and politics of wayward communities who refuse to be bound by the fictions of race and sex.
