Shutter Interface is an expanded cinema piece: a series of machinegun bursts of chromatic relationships and visual harmonics in an overwhelming montage
Heat-mapped bodies, found porn films, Korean psyche-folk, creepy police intrusion and self-defence.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Underlying radical transfeminism, as an urgent critique of binary essentialism and fixed identities, is the call for a new kind of thinking that can move between and integrate the truths of all lives in their transformations.
A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
A confrontational and somehow shamanic stance; introspective silences shattered by savage jabs at the strings, whirlwind strums dying into spartan chords
A spectacular musical show which discusses the representation of a nation state, its characters and history. A learning play on myth construction and its reproduction.
Glasgow. Power electronic klutz behaviour by Kovorox sound head-honcho. Bruised bodies and broken microphones.
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.”
Taking a scalpel to the relationship between performer and audience: cutting something out to see what’s left, a drastic subtraction and shift of emphasis.
Ian and Gil will host a discussion on the Argument project’s social and political commentaries, and with you try and maybe think through whether and how they might still have some currency today: what’s changed and what’s stayed the same?
