Edinburgh. Beer and smoke befuddled drone/ deadly efforts by Pjorn72 kingpin.
A film installation as both allegory and investigation of The Rockridge Institute and their research into ‘framing’ and the use of metaphor within political discourse.
An immersive live performance for multiple 16mm film and bass clarinet, taking in the whole gallery, submerging the audience.
For day one of Ultra-red’s project, the investigation will take up protocols for listening to the sound of freedom composed and facilitated by George E. Lewis.
In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.
The films in the programme take the essential and fundamental building blocks of cinema (combining sound and image through time) screw about with them, interrogate them and cast them anew.
Everyday objects and materials (rubber bands, paper, a sink, microphones) disabused of their inertia and made to speak for themselves in a kind of focusing in on the tiny, repetitive, almost unobserved (sonic/ visual) potential of everyday things put into motion.
Thinking against the monoculturalism of Western thought—of faith, affection, sexuality and gender—which completely lacks any utility to, or descriptive value of Indigenous worldviews.
The Echo project is an installation as audio guide for a crowd. And at the same time it’s a private conversation: with you, as one of 20 people in a room, a sort of public intimacy.
A series of reality dramas happening over the course of the weekend.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
