Film and sound stripped of ‘content’ and experienced spatially, to be looked at not on the screen but in the space of the gallery
Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.
An open conversation around the history and practices of the Ueinzz Theatre Company – a radical Brazilian schizoscenic theatre company of carers, so-called psychotic patients and philosophers.
The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Since the 1960’s Oliverios has had a profound influence on generations of musicians through her work with myth and ritual, improvisation and meditation.
A trance inducing, flickering investigation of structural and minimalist droning from one of the key thinkers in sound and image over the last 50 years
GIO’s bottomless throat, Blood Stereo’s slobber gobbler and the Mouth Of The South tangle tonsils over Steve McCaffrey’s Carnival
Open-ended, paradoxical and performed investigations into: misunderstanding, language games, form saturated with sense, and consecutive matters…
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.
The films in the programme take the essential and fundamental building blocks of cinema (combining sound and image through time) screw about with them, interrogate them and cast them anew.
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
