Percussion used to explore the social construction of space
Includes: a polish counting lesson, around NYC with D A Pennebaker, a portrait of a tower block, a man with a spade, at home with KYTN regular Guy Sherwin, a cinematic Blair Witchish cut-up and a song for some swings.
A discussion about what is at stake in the performance of realness and the practice of passing, and how they are both acts of survival and resistance.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
Join Scot-PEP, SWARM and Decrim Now for a day of panel discussions focusing on: sex worker’s labour rights, how decriminalisation can help in the struggle for sex worker safety, sex work & migration with a film screening of Crossings.
Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.
Although Tony had visited Haino in Japan, and they played together in private, this was the first time anyone other that Haino’s cat saw them perform together.
The Cube is a 6 hour performed installation in which sound and image are treated as independent but equal, where musicians and filmmakers sit alongside each other, improvise to and feed off both projected image and amplified and acoustic sound.
For this day-long festival, sex workers and their allies from New York, the tri-state area, and Europe will gather at MoMA PS1 to debate, perform, dance, strategize & share knowledge.
An utterly deep introspection told in aching, weeping guitar lines; melodic, simple, always minimal but somehow entirely epic.
An improvisation that may or may not involve (typical) improvisation.
Haino exceeds expectation with a 4 hour solo performance on a collection of more than forty instruments from all over the world.
