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.
A silent collage of found film footage partially layered with computer graphics to provide a framework in which live music can develop.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
A beautifully crisp, slowly evolving duo for cello and projected images. Abstract but still figurative; change only noticeable after the fact.
All ticket income goes directly to We Will Rise – a group of migrants, refugees, asylum seekers and their allies who have come together to End Immigration Detention in the UK.
A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
John Mullarkey sets in a wider context our understanding of Alain Badiou and Francois Laruelle, two of the most radical philosophers in Europe today.
Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
Robin Hayward – exploring the micro-sounds of a tuba, filling slowly with sand.
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 double bill of A (imageless) film of nothing but a sound recording and its transcription and a found film of news interviews about Malcolm X’s assasination, where the filmmaker decided to add nothing to it, except our attention.
A celebration of the release of four books written by members of, and focused on about the House and Ballroom scene.
