Music for a Long Time
Rolf Julius
Julius’ “small music” features simple snatches of found sound, played back through small speakers, often set in bowls of pigment and dirt which shimmies in the vibrations.

Work for cello, percussion, contra bassoon and cherbulum commissioned for Instal in collaboration with Paragon
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
UNINSTAL was a set of events at Tramway that tested out radical ideas with leading local and international artists. A collection of events (performances, films, installations, walks and talks) about sound and listening.
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
Paul Sharits one of the great experimental, sometimes called structuralist / materialist, filmmakers of the 20th Century.
Writing that shows us that, even in struggle, there is light to be let in.
