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.
Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
A queer black operatic requiem for piano and voice that asks us to stay in the hold of the slave ship, that tries to understand the connection from the slave ship to the prison.
An extravagant debauch of huge pianos, plush toys, cognac and ritual.
A workshop inviting participants to enact a series of scores that explore witnessing, testimony, grief and mourning, facilitated by Mezna and Sadia, and accompanied by Sakina Ali.
Some of the most breathtaking, delicate and smoke filled guitar playing this side of Loren Connors or the quieter sides of Keiji Haino.
Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
Noise music for the eyes: projectors turned into instruments, B&W film loops into a thrumming riot of colour, motion and sound.
