Real-time video feedback loops submerged in laminal sheets of sound soaked in gauzy timbral detail and multi-valenced, buzzing overtones.
A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.
UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
Koji Asano, Japanese composer and sound-artist performing slow groaning burbling tones, moaning echoes and drones.
The most sophisticated synthetic music around: timbrally otherwise body music as sonified fictions and auditive sociograms.
A trance inducing, flickering investigation of structural and minimalist droning from one of the key thinkers in sound and image over the last 50 years
Daniel Carter & Sabir Mateen’s trio with percussionist Andrew Barker; incessantly driving forward through sweat-drenched bursts of pure ecstatic freedom.
Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
A kind of audience activating, structured film guessing game in the manipulation of time, sound and image. “At 11:15, weiners. At 21:05, pornography. At 23:30, a duet. Watch the Clock.”
Includes: solar flares, insect fireworks, a new film from Ian Helliwell, pulsating glaciers, an apple being eaten alive, sea ravaged stock, crushed blackberries and film that has literally risen from the grave.
Investigate film as language, via the language of film reduced to the basic units of film and language. A film as text in which each frame is a single word.
A silent collage of found film footage partially layered with computer graphics to provide a framework in which live music can develop.
