Work for cello, percussion, contra bassoon and cherbulum commissioned for Instal in collaboration with Paragon
Setting up a minimal procedure to explore the interaction between a person and the (documentary) film/ video process. What initially seems simple ends up contrarily distanced and intimate, public and private.
A film installation as both allegory and investigation of The Rockridge Institute and their research into ‘framing’ and the use of metaphor within political discourse.
Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
Copying without Copying is 3 evenings of events that are about what happens when we speak, or when we hear someone speak on our behalf, when we share a collective moment of hearing and maybe understanding.
Temporary Outpost for an Auditory Gesture is a kind of performed installation that explores how sonic phenomena (like feedback, vibration, resonance, echo, rhythm) condition our experience.
Voguing, drag, clubbing, and the politics of communities making different performances of gender and sexuality visible.
Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
The most sophisticated synthetic music around: timbrally otherwise body music as sonified fictions and auditive sociograms.
Glasgow. Low-end drone guitarage army in praise of the open chord.
A queer black operatic requiem for piano and voice that asks us to stay in the hold of the slave ship, that tries to understand the connection from the slave ship to the prison.
A performed, open, public conversation about how we might think politics from the position of intuition, in which Denise and Valentina use un-reasonable tools to map out a hybrid poetical/ ethical reading of their own situations.
