Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.

A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
An open conversation hosted by Saidiya Hartman and Fred Moten around ‘fugitivity’ and ‘waywardness’ and what it means to be in flight, excessive or ungovernable.
A changing pool of people (40 or so at a time – artists, audiences, etc) talk for 90 minutes in a simultaneous series of open-ended round-table discussions, structured like speed dating, and mixed live as both a concert and for radio broadcast.

A festival hewn from passions for experimental music, film and visual art and for a passion in figuring out how they can relate to, cross-fertilise and inspire and each other.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
Each organ is unique. The project is to find out what makes it unique.
