An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
This event honoured those individuals who achieved the status of Icon during the period of 1986-1990.
A series of reality dramas happening over the course of the weekend.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
Two-parts Helhesten spit strangled shanties and cracked reeds from under a net of the Glasgow Improv Orchestra’s six-strings and one moustache.
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
Our Zooms are unmuted, our mics are open, and our hearts and bodyminds are receptive. We give the floor online and in person to you…
Includes: street portraits of kids in 1930’s Dakota, a mysterious foggy pilgrimage, a swarm of time-lapsed consumers, a stereoscopic analysis of mill life, up close and personal in a Lighting Bolt mosh pit.
A dense materialist experience at the limits of contemporary computer music, drawing on Korean Shamanism and Communism; striving to create a strange new vibration to the world that seems to contain the seed of everything.
A parody of a (Manhattan) road movie and meditation on bifurcation, in paths traveled between the seen and the heard; a road trip played over and over from different perspectives.
Laser beam sine tones used to draw delicate, abstract patterns by vibrating charcoal, placed atop of a great strip of paper running through the gallery; beautiful, fragile sound-created autonomous drawing.
