Black Boned Angel’s is a rock sound, stripped of all extraneous detail right down to its core, stretched out and nailed to the ceiling.
Deliberately blurred drones, absent of definite structure or rhythm, framed in silence and devoid of any distraction from the pure matter of sound.
A temporary archive and research space tracing the ways in which sound and audition move through everyday life.
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
Paul Sharits one of the great experimental, sometimes called structuralist / materialist, filmmakers of the 20th Century.
