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.

No Wave, damaged garage jams and crazed instant vocal shrieks.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an abandoned oil tanker on Hoy.
Rather than asking the state for services, what kinds of change are made possible when we prioritise people supporting each other?
Radu plays a trombone, Klaus creates pure sine waves: they sound on their own, or sometimes together and often with considerable space and silence.

An open collaborative workshop space in which games, warm-up sessions, exercises and scenes are potentially the same thing, through which to project your own concerns onto the stage.
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
An open-ended moment in an ongoing series of films, notes, performances, diagrams and drawings which trace the questions they share. A “porous space between cinema time-space and lived time-space.”
