Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
Discussion with David Keenan: an author, critic and musician based in Glasgow, Scotland. He is best known for the reviews and features he has contributed to The Wire.
A conversation of intergenerational trans-resistance and anti-racist fierceness between two of the most inspiring public speakers we know.
Three speakers play back pre-recorded sounds, Marc listens and responds: “What is played is the imperfect witness of what I listen to (or maybe better, how I listen).”
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
Captures the creak and rustle of the forest, with an exhilarating tension let loose in unconfined maniacal and bare-knuckle group thinking.
One of the most compelling Indigenous voices of her generation discusses practices of Indigenous Resurgence drawn from Nishnaabeg poetic knowledge.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
Acoustic turntable, engines, trumpet and accordion joined by Bassist Magarida Garcia: build long-form quietly detailed pieces that clatter and rumble, that expand and contract with the tension and release of deeply held breath.
