Inspired by Delany’s Aye, and Gomorra. A spookily filmic world where asexual bodies live in the contradiction of their unarousable loneliness and desire for intimacy and contact.
Three intense solo performances for drums (both played and screamed through), cymbal, voice, credit card, bird whistle, and guitar amplifier/leads.
Complexly interacting colossal drones by the creator of some of the most legendary yet least heard music of the 70’s.
A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
MICRO 1 – Wrap a live microphone with a very large sheet of paper. Make a light bundle. Keep the microphone live for another 5 minutes. T. Kosugi – (1961)
Ecstatic, scalding and ludicrously heavy, nobody matches Incapacitants for live noise energy. One of the most exhilarating live acts in underground music.
Harrowing but musical confrontations with the very real, physical and aural trauma of a woman screaming.
A festival hewn from passions for experimental music, film and visual art and for a passion in figuring out how they can relate to, cross-fertilise and inspire and each other.
As part of Karrabing’s visit to Scotland, the collective will be hosted for three days in the Isle of Skye by The School of Plural Futures.
Each organ is unique. The project is to find out what makes it unique.
