Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
A performance of Ueinzz’s new play. Each Ueinzz performance is a process of reinvention, between exhaustion and a fleeting vision: singular, collective, anonymous, plural, suspensive, intensive, unworking life.
Discussion with David Keenan: an author, critic and musician based in Glasgow, Scotland. He is best known for the reviews and features he has contributed to The Wire.
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
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
The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an abandoned oil tanker on Hoy.
With a signature spartan sound and long term preoccupation in structural tactics (subtle shifts in density, drawn out stasis) Polwechsel blur the boundaries between individual instruments.
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.
A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
Ecstatic, intensely joyous experimental club music: like “the sound of our water ceremonies…40 bands playing their melodies at once to recreate the cacophony of the first aurora and the call of the morning star Venus”.
