An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
The first INSTAL festival (programmed by Barry Esson of Arika and Tiernan Kelly) featured a line-up including Robert Lippock, Philip Jeck, Fennesz, Paragon Ensemble, Icebreaker International, Defaalt and Rhomboi.
The Scottish based Paragon Ensemble has commissioned David Fennessy to compose music for Instal, which will be performed during the evening.

Deliberately blurred drones, absent of definite structure or rhythm, framed in silence and devoid of any distraction from the pure matter of sound.
A rare live performance which, although not a full installation, made use of the unique acoustic and spatial properties of the Arches to rattle the audience and help it locate its third ear.
If life is assaulted by power, where do we find spaces for living? A conversation with Peter Pál Pelbart.
