Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
A dance party love letter to our community, expressing the joy of relation in the abstract and through actual physical proximity.
Free jazz pianist John Blum with an everywhere-at-once presence in duo with Jackson Krall, incendiary free jazz drummer and sound sculptor
A prison abolitionist punk video-poetry-music mash up about our fucked-up dystopian society, RoboCop, kids toys and criminality.
AMM have undoubtedly been among the most important contributors to the UK free improv scene for nearly 40 years and we are extremely proud to be able to be working with such distinguished musicians who still rarely play live in the UK.
Ecstatic, scalding and ludicrously heavy, nobody matches Incapacitants for live noise energy. One of the most exhilarating live acts in underground music.
Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
Chip will read some of his great literary pornography, which pushes sexuality to the point of extremity and exhaustion.
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.
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.
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
The pieces in the programme switch between silent film/ imageless sound, but we wanted to have a think about how ideas can take up residency on either side of the sound/ image border, without having to inhabit both at the same time.
