A panel exploring how to dismantle the master’s house — its material edifices and ideological architecture — and the construction of abolitionist futures in the present.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an old underground reservoir in Fife.
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
Taking The Futurist Cinema’ manifesto and turning it into software to track ‘aluminium’ online, tracing relationships companies with interests in aluminum had to each other and other agencies.
An open conversation hosted by Saidiya Hartman and Fred Moten around ‘fugitivity’ and ‘waywardness’ and what it means to be in flight, excessive or ungovernable.
Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)

Sonic ‘observations’ of the world, through micro recordings on a tiny scale and transformed into something musically compelling.
A sound diffusion piece by Glasgow University’s Musica Electronica, and a further selection of electroacoustic performances.
The films in the programme take the essential and fundamental building blocks of cinema (combining sound and image through time) screw about with them, interrogate them and cast them anew.
