Jacobs’ pulsing and abstract 3D Nervous Magic Lantern performance grounded by Eric La Casa’s manipulated recordings of everyday locations.
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Can our favourite Vegas-born poet of prophetic blackness and a South Central transmuter of social rage into beauty feel through each other?
Italian duo of brothers Maurizio and Roberto Opalio utilising an array of acoustic and electric guitars, various toy-instruments and toy-microphones.
Haino exceeds expectation with a 4 hour solo performance on a collection of more than forty instruments from all over the world.
For this one off performance Vibracathedral Orchestra are joined by Matthew Bower and John Godbert from mighty UK heavy/drone/psych free-noise behemoths Skullfower, Sunroof! and Total.
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
Wordless, reverb drenched voice, ghosted electronics, seething and ferocious electronic damage and Patty Waters style vocal mania.
Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.
A voice that can vault from an elegantly whispered insinuation to asphyxiated and murderous barks or squalls in a heartbeat.
