Arrive, get settled, be hosted and meet-up in IRL and URL.
A simple, gracefully bold set-up to allow Loïc to trace connections: of comments upon comments upon comments, of sounds next to sounds next to sounds.
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.
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.
A festival hewn from passions for experimental music, film and visual art and for a passion in figuring out how they can relate to, cross-fertilise and inspire and each other.
A collaboration bringing together artists with a shared gravitational heft to their work; an intense and concentrated accumulation of detail and power.
A sound diffusion piece by Glasgow University’s Musica Electronica, and a further selection of electroacoustic performances.
In rethinking the body, the law, the state, gender, race, violence, care and empathy, how we might give humanness a different future?
How might two of the great musicians working within contrasting traditions of freedom collaborate? What might this produce: musically, socially, allegorically?
Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
