Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
Wordless, reverb drenched voice, ghosted electronics, seething and ferocious electronic damage and Patty Waters style vocal mania.
Transfeminist and revolutionary poetry, voice and timbral abstraction: a sounding and spatialising of reparative sonic and somatic practices that can speak back to violent histories of expropriation and ecocide.
For day three of Ultra-red’s project, the investigation will take up protocols for listening to the sound of freedom composed and facilitated by Nancy Nevárez.
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
A solo improvisation using just the situation of the concert: a space, a PA, Mattin’s own thoughts, you, the audience.
Trans-temporal drag, sexuality and the re-staging of illegible moments in history.
A performed filmic conversation on queer and black world making.
Electronic music, time, thought, the word, and consecutive matters
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
