A series of reality dramas happening over the course of the weekend.
Free Jazz group comprising Matt Lavelle, Matt Heyner (TEST, No-Neck Blues Band) and Ryan Sawyer (Tall Firs).
Hartmut is going to talk a little about his work at large and the politics of how his films are constructed. And we’ll screen one of his best films: B-52.
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.
Guy Sherwin gives a kind of annotated, chat through his optical sound films
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Koji Asano, Japanese composer and sound-artist performing slow groaning burbling tones, moaning echoes and drones.
Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
