Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
Daniel Carter & Sabir Mateen’s trio with percussionist Andrew Barker; incessantly driving forward through sweat-drenched bursts of pure ecstatic freedom.
A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
An immersive environment where sound is looped through oscillators, radio, guitar pick-ups and video amps to create dense strobing images and colours
Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
A recreation of one of Gustav Metzger’s celebrated auto destructive performances.
TEST is a collective creative improvising quartet based out of the NYC Underground (figuratively and literally). Their street-hardened, spatial Jazz is riotous and intense: is also makes us think about collective organization, and different ideas of responsibility and liberty.
Artist Derek Lodge running a specially designed social space, somewhere for conversation, story-telling and interaction.
Three intimate 45 minute sessions, reading your political questions – using Tarot, Palmistry, Reiki, Astrology, and Philosophy, and the invented methods of Fake and Political Therapy.
Taku’s actions strip back musical performance to one of its original proposals: what is an action and how does it create a situation for spending time together, for paying attention?
Mashed up queer fantasy of worker’s revolts, biblical demons and present-day hells, and dubbed out cyborg-electro.
