Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in a remote sea cave near Durness.
An utterly deep introspection told in aching, weeping guitar lines; melodic, simple, always minimal but somehow entirely epic.
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
Multiple images, glimpses of old films, abstract images in the midst of an electro-acoustic sound field of tape loops & analogue synthesizers
Sonic ‘observations’ of the world, through micro recordings on a tiny scale and transformed into something musically compelling.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
A collaborative social justice project that uses art, activism and awareness to combat the systemic oppression facing young, trans, queer & gender nonconforming people of colour.
A delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).
Two-parts Helhesten spit strangled shanties and cracked reeds from under a net of the Glasgow Improv Orchestra’s six-strings and one moustache.
Summing up of the investigations with a reflection on what has been done that week and what could be done the next.
The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.
The Scottish based Paragon Ensemble has commissioned David Fennessy to compose music for Instal, which will be performed during the evening.
