Performance of a Sudoko based graphic score giving rise to a process of self cancellation.
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.
How do people both inside and outside of prison work together to dismantle the criminal justice system and build a society based on collective care?
Long Stringed Instrument performance involving up to 100 wires strung in tension over a 40m arch.
Smith/Stewart set up allegorical situations over which they often have little to no control, but which instigate explorations of dependence and trust, the body, sex and death.
Bruno’s liberated improvisational approach stretches beyond the lyrical, tough as nails rhythmic bursts and expressive, swinging attack of his drumming.
Three days of discussions, performances, actions, dancing and food – continuing No Total’s ongoing contemplation of ways of being together and the ways Arika have been entangled in those, ever since Episode 4.
A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
An immersive live performance for multiple 16mm film and bass clarinet, taking in the whole gallery, submerging the audience.
A collaborative duo performance, Anoyonodekigoto sets up a sort of negotiation between a musician, a dancer, the audience and the space we’re all sharing.
Avant-wrongdoers Blood Stereo performing in Garthamlock the town spawned them.
A performance for projectionist, musicians and audience, which plays with references to Oscar Levant and Gershwin: apparently a series of small doses of chaos.
