Loïc and Marc are proposing a series of investigations into the tension between improvisation and recording and how it can be used to engage with different spaces and environments around Dundee
Includes: solar flares, insect fireworks, a new film from Ian Helliwell, pulsating glaciers, an apple being eaten alive, sea ravaged stock, crushed blackberries and film that has literally risen from the grave.
Investigate film as language, via the language of film reduced to the basic units of film and language. A film as text in which each frame is a single word.
Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)

Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
Sachiko’s very simple, pure sine tones and structures. Otomo on double pianos. Filament’s music isn’t composed and it isn’t improvised: it’s a hybrid of the two.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
