Join Ståle Holgerson to discuss his new book Against the Crisis, hosted by Glasgow Housing Struggle Archive
A series of reality dramas happening over the course of the weekend.
Radu plays a trombone, Klaus creates pure sine waves: they sound on their own, or sometimes together and often with considerable space and silence.
Long Stringed Instrument performance involving up to 100 wires strung in tension over a 40m arch.
Politicised fan-fiction chronicling working class gay urban space and fantasy.
How do you know what you want? Should freedom be doing what you ought, not doing what you want? How might a philosopher and artist turn this thinking into an enabling condition in the context of noise and improvisation?
Three days of discussions, performances, actions, dancing and food – continuing No Total’s ongoing contemplation of ways of being together and the ways Arika have been entangled in those, ever since Episode 4.
A simple hands on workshop with micro-radio theorist and pioneer Kogawa.
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
A system in which film is projected onto copper strips, captured again and then re-projected as video, somehow transforming the original imagery into molasses-slow, molten and incredibly tactile flickers of colour and light.
Adamantly analogue, inspiring and frequently chaotic in performance, Metamkine draw no distinction between image and sound; during their intuitively improvised performances music and images are created simultaneously and equitably.
