The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.
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.”
Taking over the gallery spaces at Dundee Contemporary Arts, the first Kill Your Timid Notion presented a 3 day programme of live immersive experiences and specially curated film programmes.
Real-time video feedback loops submerged in laminal sheets of sound soaked in gauzy timbral detail and multi-valenced, buzzing overtones.
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
Black-clad with an ominous aura created by their distorted guitar epics, burnt-out ballads and raucous mantric jams.
How do people both inside and outside of prison work together to dismantle the criminal justice system and build a society based on collective care?
This event honoured those individuals who achieved the status of Icon during the period of 1986-1990.
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
The second in a series of workshops for workers and non-workers who care. What does the sharing of vulnerability entail? Can such a sharing inform progressive social relations?
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
