This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
A programme looking at landscape, filmic or architectural spaces and at how the fixed stare of a camera frame only captures so much reality; here we focus on how filmmakers structure our relationship with that reality and at how they relate it to or interpret it through sound.
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
Audio signals pass through light bulbs, causing the filaments of the bulbs to sing and crackle in a chorus of electronic static.
How do communities practice being one another’s means, addressing their material problems facing them replicating the state’s violent logic of who is disposable.
Solo organ performance by German composer Eva-Maria Houben, which focuses on ‘nearly nothing’ to expand the way we listen.
A performance of Ueinzz’s new play. Each Ueinzz performance is a process of reinvention, between exhaustion and a fleeting vision: singular, collective, anonymous, plural, suspensive, intensive, unworking life.
One of the most influential groups in improvised music, with the collective understanding that comes from listening keenly to each other for decades
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
