Brain boiling duo improvisation by great Japanese no input mixing desk pioneer Toshi Nakamura and french organ philosopher Jean-Luc Guionnet.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
Glasgow. Low-end drone guitarage army in praise of the open chord.
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.
The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
A festival hewn from passions for experimental music, film and visual art and for a passion in figuring out how they can relate to, cross-fertilise and inspire and each other.
An immersive live performance for multiple 16mm film and bass clarinet, taking in the whole gallery, submerging the audience.
Criminal Queers visualises a radical trans/queer struggle against the prison industrial complex, working to abolish the multiple ways our hearts, genders, and desires are confined.
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.
A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.
