Percussion used to explore the social construction of space
Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.

What does it mean to listen with the mind as well as the ears? A solo performance from the great avant-garde pianist.
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.
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?

Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
Terry is one of the most entertaining and unpredictable musicians in the London free improvising music scene. Rhodri Davies extends his instrument under a battery of techniques creating sound colours and textures quite alien to the harp.
Film and sound stripped of ‘content’ and experienced spatially, to be looked at not on the screen but in the space of the gallery
Edinburgh. Nigh-inaudible improv jams with disabled instruments from the makers of Giant Tank and Pizza Boy Delivery.
