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.
Film and sound stripped of ‘content’ and experienced spatially, to be looked at not on the screen but in the space of the gallery
No Wave, damaged garage jams and crazed instant vocal shrieks.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Light Music is a dizzying celebration of the pivotal nature of sound in film; a direct and powerful transcription of film as sound.
Inhabiting a different kind of energy, Ueinzz’s open rehearsals reveal a glimpse into their ongoing daily theatrical modes of caring – multiplying the ways in which their plays are meant to be felt, rather than understood.
A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
A trio of Tamio’s screaming and immovable slabs of sound; Mico’s dance/ performance/ piano; Fritz’s absurd, flailing percussion/ voice.
A loud, buzzing stew of electrical light as noise and convulsive electric guitar squall.
A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
A performance by Storyboard P – one of the greatest Afrofuturist dancers on the planet.
Duo performance by two great French musique concrète improvisers using feedback, contact mics, tape, an old Revox tape machine, a vintage synth…
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
