How can we imagine bodies not as an end in themselves, but as a medium through which we can become one another’s means?
Sachiko M and Ami Yoshida, two of the most prominent members of the Onkyo movement, place much more emphasis on sound texture than on musical structure, distilling elements of techno, noise, and electronic music into a unique hybrid.
John Mullarkey sets in a wider context our understanding of Alain Badiou and Francois Laruelle, two of the most radical philosophers in Europe today.
Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
If life is assaulted by power, where do we find spaces for living? A conversation with Peter Pál Pelbart.
A panel exploring the radical potential of technologies through fugitivity and opacity: their ability to obscure, to make it impossible for us to be known, to render us untraceable by every arm of the state even under the all-consuming spectre of surveillance capital.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
A community of those without community, for a community to come. A schizo-scenic video-collage of the disturbing ‘normality’ of Moby Dick.
Out of a dark haze, shafts of lights are picked out from the surface of film. Out of the black silence, noise, audible scratches bloom into a bright drone of broken and cracked objects.
A delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).
