Psychedelic and intense, and featuring some of the most visually stunning, mesmerizing and transcendent experiences you can imagine, batten down the hatches for some of the boldest, most immersive and abrasive works in experimental cinema.

What might Carter and Parker’s collaboration tell us about our own performances of responsibility and liberty, whether individual, social or musical?
A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
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.
Profound mathematical ideas for romantics, to help us linger in the difference we share.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.

Miniscule free-noise hissy-fits and broken instrument scrape/ squeal jams from the fools what brought you Giant Tank.
