Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
One-shot sonic portraits of 4 houses, their inhabitants and their relationship to sound, from 2 of the most deep-thinking field-recording artists around.
Paper Piece: Secrets is a performance for and with the whole audience, using paper, text, secrets, being in the crowd
Mashed up queer fantasy of worker’s revolts, biblical demons and present-day hells, and dubbed out cyborg-electro.
Setting up a minimal procedure to explore the interaction between a person and the (documentary) film/ video process. What initially seems simple ends up contrarily distanced and intimate, public and private.
A kind of an informal overview of INSTAL.
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.
A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
What might Carter and Parker’s collaboration tell us about our own performances of responsibility and liberty, whether individual, social or musical?
A bodiless treatise on narration, bored speakers, audience misbehaviour and police megaphones, but: is anybody listening?
Radu plays a trombone, Klaus creates pure sine waves: they sound on their own, or sometimes together and often with considerable space and silence.
A programme that looks at how sound and image can be treated as variants in a collection of ordered objects; at how to create meaning from the similar, and to notice difference.
