Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
Solo organ performance by German composer Eva-Maria Houben, which focuses on ‘nearly nothing’ to expand the way we listen.
Andrew Chalk & Christoph Heemann return with their diaphanous, impressionistic drone duo; their slowly evolving and enthralling works flutter and quiver with elegantly restrained, miniature sound events.
Julius Eastman’s Evil Nigger for 4 pianos performed by Joe Kubera, Kate Thompson, David Murray, Alan Fearon and Simon Passmore.
Freeform Super 8mm documentation of Sunday at Instal 06 by filmmaker Matt Hulse.
An extravagant debauch of huge pianos, plush toys, cognac and ritual.
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.

Individual experience separated by physical boundaries (of space, time or ability) suggested as communities of collective experience by (perhaps voyeuristic) artists.
Politicised fan-fiction chronicling working class gay urban space and fantasy.
UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
Summing up of the investigations with a reflection on what has been done that week and what could be done the next.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
