A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
We wanted to ask a bunch of the best high-energy-improvisers around; can musical form really taking shape via a group energy? Can individual concentration lead to a group consciousness?
Post consideration and post rationalisation… How do we think about experimental music and film after the performance?
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
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 delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).

The reknowned artist Kjell Bjørgeengen works collaboratively with innovative musicians to make complex installations. Channels of flickering light are produced in response to and from sound.
Light Music is a dizzying celebration of the pivotal nature of sound in film; a direct and powerful transcription of film as sound.
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.
In Ramayya’s visionary poetry, the body assumes as many forms as love produces states: attraction and repulsion, excitement and exhaustion, selfishness and the dissolution of self.
