One of the most startling cinematic debuts on record, The Flicker is more a hallucination than a film, an out of body experience and riotous celebration of visual harmonics frequencies. An experiment in perception, come with your mind and eyes open.
Work for cello, percussion, contra bassoon and cherbulum commissioned for Instal in collaboration with Paragon
Intriguing, underground, Berlin based musicians interested in the borders between music and theatre, language, the visual arts, politics.

Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
A three-day celebration surveying all manner of diverse musical activities, which at their core share a basic kinship: one of exploration and the discovery of musical expresssion.

UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
Part old-fashioned Renaissance man, part hardcore avant-gardist, the Canadian painter-photographer-filmmaker-musician gives full vent to his genius in the exhilarating perceptual vaudeville, named after the ‘central region’ of tissue that acts as a conduit between the brain’s two hemispheres.
Conceived of as a dual publication, video cassette and booklet, to be presented as an installation. The content of the videotape is the artist watching television.
