Guy Sherwin gives a kind of annotated, chat through his optical sound films
Low-end drone guitarage army since 1997: nobody has done more on this occasion by a gaggle of sludge-lovers from the Scottish underground.
Can we use sound, repetition and difference to personally and collectively engage with space, time and labour?
Acting at the minimum. Each film here substitutes one small thing for another, (ironically) transforming received meanings by the simplest of actions; often kind of funny too.
This event honoured those individuals who achieved the status of Icon during the period of 1986-1990.
N30 is a massive, dynamic, immersive multi-channel presentation of front-line field recordings from the protest against the WTO in Seattle
An invitation into languages field of touch; to speak in feeling together.
Three days of discussions, performances, actions, dancing and food – continuing No Total’s ongoing contemplation of ways of being together and the ways Arika have been entangled in those, ever since Episode 4.
Performance of a Sudoko based graphic score giving rise to a process of self cancellation.
Now a two day festival, INSTAL 04 was borne of a desire to open eyes, challenge audiences and expand musical horizons. This was also the year in which a certain representative from Corwood Industries made his first ever live appearance.
A festival hewn from passions for experimental music, film and visual art and for a passion in figuring out how they can relate to, cross-fertilise and inspire and each other.
An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
