A performance by Storyboard P – one of the greatest Afrofuturist dancers on the planet.
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
Bringing together artists working with music, sound, film and the moving image, KYTN 2008 saw performances, improvisations, screenings and installations over three days at DCA.
(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
Arrive, get settled, be hosted and meet-up in IRL and URL.
The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.
A dense materialist experience at the limits of contemporary computer music, drawing on Korean Shamanism and Communism; striving to create a strange new vibration to the world that seems to contain the seed of everything.
An LSD trip gone right via dense explorations of post-Fahey steel and low level drone.
Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
A crash-course in pre-figurative, radical, queer, anti-racist, anti-police, anti-prison, anti-deportation abolitionist politics and trans-resistance.
Are artists powerless in the face of technology? These often whimsical and amusing films are minimal technological interventions and appropriations but maybe also rigorous takes on the role of popular media and culture in our hyper-technological world.
