Sound and image slipping out of synch and into discord, the programme includes (in London at least) a very special version of Hollis Frampton’s masterful (nostalgia) with a live narration by Michael Snow.

Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
