Performances at St Giles in the Fields, London by Jandek, Rhodri Davies & Angharad Davies, Rauhan Orkesteri.
By focusing on the things that most people don’t notice or pass by uncaring – Steve Roden crafts gentle, sparse and metaphorically loaded compositions.
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
An LSD trip gone right via dense explorations of post-Fahey steel and low level drone.
Writing that shows us that, even in struggle, there is light to be let in.
Simon Morris is joined by Nick Thurston as they attempt to read aloud whilst peddling on exercise bikes.
How do we gesture to the invisible, the trans or the obscure? A performative conversation between boychild and Fernando, a sharing of gestures, and a bodily back and forth between mathematician and dance artist.

Terry is one of the most entertaining and unpredictable musicians in the London free improvising music scene. Rhodri Davies extends his instrument under a battery of techniques creating sound colours and textures quite alien to the harp.
Jumping off from Sun Ra’s thoughts on evil, and the Alien films, this performance will explore how the sociality Sondra wants to visualise and participate in has no interest in respectability.
Investigate film as language, via the language of film reduced to the basic units of film and language. A film as text in which each frame is a single word.
Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.
