Using violin and cello the duo map out a twilight sonic world that seems to tread the faultlines between improvisation and composition.
A double bill of Morgan Fisher films that ask what can be achieved by a simple structural method of commenting on scraps of 35mm film, re-shot on 16mm film and what happens to meaning (if anything) when ‘insert shots’ are relieved of their original duty of providing crucial plot development for a variety of other movies?
Originally billed as a duo of Ingar Zach and Derek Bailey, John Butcher stood in for Bailey at the last minute.

A kind of an informal overview of INSTAL.
A discussion about what is at stake in the performance of realness and the practice of passing, and how they are both acts of survival and resistance.
