Trans-temporal drag, sexuality and the re-staging of illegible moments in history.
Long Stringed Instrument performance involving up to 100 wires strung in tension over a 40m arch.
Transfeminist and revolutionary poetry, voice and timbral abstraction: a sounding and spatialising of reparative sonic and somatic practices that can speak back to violent histories of expropriation and ecocide.
From really simple, open instructions, An Unrhymed Chord creates a kind of half-way point between composition and improvisation.
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.
Greek TV company Onos Productions came to INSTAL 09 to document the festival and report on Nikos Veliotis’ Cello Powder performance.
In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A workshop for educators, activists and young people to think about radical, anti-imperialist pedagogy, and what fighting for the Palestinian cause looks like for young people in the imperial core. PDF of the resource available soon.
Former street performer, organist, performance artist, circus performer, harpist, accordion player, tree surgeon and tricyclist performing solo.
A mixture of investigation groups, live performances, screenings and installations at DCA; the festival looked to strip back music, sound, film and moving image to their core ideas and explore them with artists and audiences.
A new interpretation of Kosugi’s Catch-Wave, producing a cloud of fluctuating, hypnotic drones, in front of a backdrop of projected waves.
