Thirty lucky Instal punters experience Kylie’s pre-match aggro workout one-on-one in the darkness of an Arches dressing room.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis

Black Boned Angel’s is a rock sound, stripped of all extraneous detail right down to its core, stretched out and nailed to the ceiling.
A collaboration bringing together artists with a shared gravitational heft to their work; an intense and concentrated accumulation of detail and power.
A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
