No Wave, damaged garage jams and crazed instant vocal shrieks.
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
Performances at St Giles in the Fields, London by Jandek, Rhodri Davies & Angharad Davies, Rauhan Orkesteri.
Sound as it is endured by space and the body: 15 participants lie face down and pound the floor with a microphone one thousand times, each person choosing their own rhythm and intensity.
Acoustic turntable, engines, trumpet and accordion joined by Bassist Magarida Garcia: build long-form quietly detailed pieces that clatter and rumble, that expand and contract with the tension and release of deeply held breath.
A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
Dir: Maurizio Lazzarato & Angela Melitopoulos
A filmic constellation exploring Felix Guattari’s anti-patriarchal, anti-colonialist, anti-psychiatric, animist ideas of care and the self. And an Introduction to the Episode.

A solo improvisation using just the situation of the concert: a space, a PA, Mattin’s own thoughts, you, the audience.
A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.
Talk charting the radical history of experimental music in Japan + the lowdown into the careers of many of the artists appearing at MLFC.
A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
