A bodiless treatise on narration, bored speakers, audience misbehaviour and police megaphones, but: is anybody listening?
Join Brian as he ruminates on the history of how experimental filmmakers and sound artists have drifted into and taken over galleries in order to show their work.
Exploring the interplay between punk sinewave aggression, high-speed video sequences and stroboscopic lighting

Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
This event honoured those individuals who achieved the status of Icon during the period of 1986-1990.

A programme of discontinuity between narration, text and image. Including Manual Saiz’s employment of John Malkovich’s Spanish dubbing double and Peter Rose’s absurdly hilarious concrete poetry subtitling chaos.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.

Avant-wrongdoers Blood Stereo performing in Garthamlock the town spawned them.
