ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
Conceived of as a dual publication, video cassette and booklet, to be presented as an installation. The content of the videotape is the artist watching television.
Seven women recite monologues composed from texts from the vibrant years of the Weimar Republic. A kind of cultural echo: an experience of histories brought to the present.
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
Pitching Fahey inspired, eastern-infused folk vibrations, sad elliptical drones and oracle chants into one kaleidoscopic sound.
Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
In rethinking the body, the law, the state, gender, race, violence, care and empathy, how we might give humanness a different future?
Umeda is a Japanese artist who is as fascinated in setting up interesting situations to observe, as he is in creating performances.
Three iconic figures from the Japanese underground assembled as a trio to stand in for the advertised duo of Junko and Jerome Noetinger who was unable to attend the festival due to illness.
One of the most influential groups in improvised music, with the collective understanding that comes from listening keenly to each other for decades
The second of two short film programmes featuring works that blur the boundaries between music and film from artists who cross and redefine those long held divisions. This programme highlights contemporary works.
Three workshops lead up to an open invitation to improvise with the festival as concert. The last four hours of the Sunday 14 at Instal 10 were devoted to presentations devised during the three workshops. The material conditions (time, space, facilities…) were the instruments. From there anything could happen.
