Coffee, Croissants & Massage – a welcoming breakfast for all with massage by qualified massage therapists present to give hand & head massages.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
Deliberately blurred drones, absent of definite structure or rhythm, framed in silence and devoid of any distraction from the pure matter of sound.
Sarah Washington uses electronics and wind-up radios, running out of charge to repsond to the festivals’ Self Cancellation provocation.
Is it possible to dance our way out of the hardened stances and identity prisons we are locked in?
This mini, late-night ball will include categories inspired by the events earlier in the weekend.
A delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).
Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
An improvisation that may or may not involve (typical) improvisation.
Audio signals pass through light bulbs, causing the filaments of the bulbs to sing and crackle in a chorus of electronic static.
Guitar solo where inscrutable, minute electric sounds are excavated by palms that smother and strangle, that wring sound from the fretboard, from behind the bridge.
Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
