A performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test. A game of chance. Constantly broadcasting live, actor Tam Dean Burn will leave Tramway at the start of INSTAL and walk away from it, in an ever increasing spiral, for a day. Then he’ll walk back.
Craig will give a guided reading of his handbook of exemplary instances of literary listening and will be joined by one of the selected authors, Vanessa Place.

To Rococo Rot member Robert Lippok performing for the first time in the UK with his solo project.
A specially commissioned performance for organ. “The course of the stars were to be put to sound.”
