Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an old underground reservoir in Fife.
Dir: Maurizio Lazzarato & Angela Melitopoulos
A filmic constellation exploring Felix Guattari’s anti-patriarchal, anti-colonialist, anti-psychiatric, animist ideas of care and the self. And an Introduction to the Episode.
A confrontational and somehow shamanic stance; introspective silences shattered by savage jabs at the strings, whirlwind strums dying into spartan chords
A performed filmic conversation on queer and black world making.
A programme looking at landscape, filmic or architectural spaces and at how the fixed stare of a camera frame only captures so much reality; here we focus on how filmmakers structure our relationship with that reality and at how they relate it to or interpret it through sound.
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.
Summer Solstice hang out IRL and URL on 21 June
Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
An improvisation that may or may not involve (typical) improvisation.
The Tower performance at KYTN throws into that mix the 70’s fluxus light shows and films of Jeff Perkins and other filmic interventions tuned to their unique frequency.
