Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
Solo by Jean-Philippe Gross, a French electro-acoustic improviser, working with mixing board, cheap mics, small speakers and an analog synth, built around a honed interest in feedback.
A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
Christian Bök‘s work spans thrillingly conceptual poetry to body-shaking vocal performances.
A loud, buzzing stew of electrical light as noise and convulsive electric guitar squall.
An improvised film about our worlds at the brink, on the edge, in front of a crisis. To stand on the side of life, by seeing the resistance to genocide in Palestine as a turning point to overcome.
(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
Dual projections of pulsating shards of film, treated in crystallized salts and dyes merge with the whirring of projectors, distilled into particles of sound.
Can a collective performance of NourbeSe’s poem of black life as it exceeds containment enact alternative forms of selfhood that emerge in and out of African diasporic experience?
Our Zooms are unmuted, our mics are open, and our hearts and bodyminds are receptive. We give the floor online and in person to you…
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
Can we use sound, repetition and difference to personally and collectively engage with space, time and labour?
