Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
Watching films and chatting with Karrabing members about those films: as they attend to the memory and practice of the ancestral present and the ancestral catastrophe that Karrabing and their more-than-human world find themselves facing.
Work for cello, percussion, contra bassoon and cherbulum commissioned for Instal in collaboration with Paragon
We asked Christoph to come and give a sort of informal talk, raising some of his ideas about sound and image, and playing/ showing a few examples.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
A kind of performed installation of searing noise and silence, where we’re not sure who the performer is, when it starts or ends or even who it’s for.
Artist Derek Lodge running a specially designed social space, somewhere for conversation, story-telling and interaction.
Three workshops lead up to an open invitation to improvise with the festival as concert. The last four hours of the Sunday 14 at Instal 10 were devoted to presentations devised during the three workshops. The material conditions (time, space, facilities…) were the instruments. From there anything could happen.
Film and sound stripped of ‘content’ and experienced spatially, to be looked at not on the screen but in the space of the gallery
Robin Hayward – exploring the micro-sounds of a tuba, filling slowly with sand.
Repetitive, mesmerizing rhythmic workouts, to pieces of stark and rigorous introspection, where notes picked and slid in isolation, scatter like mercury around the listener.
An event exploring anarchic and communal situations of musical creation with MV, EE and The Cherry Blossoms.
