Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
Transfeminist and revolutionary poetry, voice and timbral abstraction: a sounding and spatialising of reparative sonic and somatic practices that can speak back to violent histories of expropriation and ecocide.
Long Stringed Instrument performance involving up to 100 wires strung in tension over a 40m arch.
A dismantled, performed film, where a narrator pieces together the sounds, images and storytelling of a documentary about Hurricane Katrina before a live audience.
Quasi-theatrical multiple-projector pieces play with the relationship between performers, art and audiences.
Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.
Three days of discussions, performances, actions, dancing and food – continuing No Total’s ongoing contemplation of ways of being together and the ways Arika have been entangled in those, ever since Episode 4.
Instead of the one-way monologue of normal performance, what would be the result of an actual collective dialogue? Where would it go?
Haino exceeds expectation with a 4 hour solo performance on a collection of more than forty instruments from all over the world.
A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
Loïc and Marc are proposing a series of investigations into the tension between improvisation and recording and how it can be used to engage with different spaces and environments around Dundee
The Experimental Improvisers Association of Japan, [EXIAS-J] are a loose collective of musicians and dilettantes who seem to represent an entire and self sufficient scene in one band.
