The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.
The first of two workshops that highlight correspondence as a way of working. Somewhere between song, speech, and logistical arrangement, these workshops invite participants to consider care as infrastructure.
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
Improvising using nothing so much as the passage of time as his instrument, Basinski creates works of great melancholic depth and fragile beauty.
In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.
Reading their letters to each other, and chatting about prefigurative politics as the practice of relentlessly building worlds through unspeakable violence and loss; of building worlds and living in them anyway.
Like walking through the abstracted amalgamation of 30 or so storms, trays of water shaken by thunder, light bouncing off pools.
A programme that looks at how sound and image can be treated as variants in a collection of ordered objects; at how to create meaning from the similar, and to notice difference.
A meditation on how all of us perform — sometimes reinforcing, sometimes subverting — the shifting categories of gender, sexuality and race.
A discussion about what is at stake in the performance of realness and the practice of passing, and how they are both acts of survival and resistance.
A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
