An invitation into languages field of touch; to speak in feeling together.
Strickland Distribution and Ultra-red give a practical sound workshop bringing together walk participants to discuss the issues raised during the walk

A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
Repetitive, mesmerizing rhythmic workouts, to pieces of stark and rigorous introspection, where notes picked and slid in isolation, scatter like mercury around the listener.

Originally billed as a duo of Ingar Zach and Derek Bailey, John Butcher stood in for Bailey at the last minute.

An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
