Paul Sharits one of the great experimental, sometimes called structuralist / materialist, filmmakers of the 20th Century.
A performance of Ueinzz’s new play. Each Ueinzz performance is a process of reinvention, between exhaustion and a fleeting vision: singular, collective, anonymous, plural, suspensive, intensive, unworking life.
Jandek’s first ever live performance. Unannounced, the performance was a total surprise for everybody at the festival.
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.
Jandek performing at the Scottish Rite Theatre in Austin, Texas with Juan Garcia, Nick Hennies and Chris Cogburn.
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.

Glasgow based artist Defaalt invites the audience to collaborate fully in his performance by means of a generative graphical interface.
Sonic ‘observations’ of the world, through micro recordings on a tiny scale and transformed into something musically compelling.
