Final workshop exploring work, care and class. Does the ‘care industry’ summon forth its own class? Can this ‘affective class’, in their ability to care for others, militate against the carelessness of self-interest?
Glasgow based artist Defaalt invites the audience to collaborate fully in his performance by means of a generative graphical interface.
A kind of performed installation of searing noise and silence, where we’re not sure who the performer is, when it starts or ends or even who it’s for.
We asked Christoph to come and give a sort of informal talk, raising some of his ideas about sound and image, and playing/ showing a few examples.
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
A kind of audience activating, structured film guessing game in the manipulation of time, sound and image. “At 11:15, weiners. At 21:05, pornography. At 23:30, a duet. Watch the Clock.”
Harrowing but musical confrontations with the very real, physical and aural trauma of a woman screaming.
A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
In rethinking the body, the law, the state, gender, race, violence, care and empathy, how we might give humanness a different future?
An invitation into languages field of touch; to speak in feeling together.
A solo improvisation using just the situation of the concert: a space, a PA, Mattin’s own thoughts, you, the audience.
