Post consideration and post rationalisation… How do we think about experimental music and film after the performance?
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
Black-clad with an ominous aura created by their distorted guitar epics, burnt-out ballads and raucous mantric jams.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.

Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
A poetic multi-screen performance about “the inadequacy of the arbitrary passing moment and the impossibility of permanence”. About time and change.
A film installation as both allegory and investigation of The Rockridge Institute and their research into ‘framing’ and the use of metaphor within political discourse.
A new interpretation of Kosugi’s Catch-Wave, producing a cloud of fluctuating, hypnotic drones, in front of a backdrop of projected waves.
