Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
A carefully thought out, simple but rich performance using just a turntable, teach yourself foreign language LP’s, the impeccable timing of a percussionist, and an idea.
The struggle for sex workers’ rights and how we can understand it in the continuum of care work and other forms of invisibilised and precarious work.
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
Light Music is a dizzying celebration of the pivotal nature of sound in film; a direct and powerful transcription of film as sound.
Work that focuses in on the static hiss and background noise of recording and pushes it to the fore.
Paul Sharits is one of our all time heroes, and one of the great artist filmmakers of the 20th Century.
Ken presents his Nervous Magic Lantern, wherein film itself is forsaken for an investigation of hypnotic and trancelike crystaline forms. Eric La Casa works with recordings of everyday occurrences: the background hum of place.
The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.
What’s the best way to spend time with a musician when they visit a city to perform? And when the musician in question has a great deal to say, what sort of concert do you organise to do justice to that?
