Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.
A temporary archive and research space tracing the ways in which sound and audition move through everyday life.
Andrew Chalk & Christoph Heemann return with their diaphanous, impressionistic drone duo; their slowly evolving and enthralling works flutter and quiver with elegantly restrained, miniature sound events.
An LSD trip gone right via dense explorations of post-Fahey steel and low level drone.
This event honoured those individuals who achieved the status of Icon during the period of 1986-1990.
Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
A conversation between Philip and Moten: how do we read NourbeSe’s anti-narrative poetic lament in Glasgow today, given the city’s role in the history of slavery?
Brother and sister stumble over the early morning horizon in a spectral haze of emotionally devastating lunar vocals and oblique, lithium-soaked folk.
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
Trans-temporal drag, sexuality and the re-staging of illegible moments in history.
A dance party love letter to our community, expressing the joy of relation in the abstract and through actual physical proximity.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
