A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
Taking a scalpel to the relationship between performer and audience: cutting something out to see what’s left, a drastic subtraction and shift of emphasis.
Paul Sharits one of the great experimental, sometimes called structuralist / materialist, filmmakers of the 20th Century.
What does it mean to listen with the mind as well as the ears? A solo performance from the great avant-garde pianist.
A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
A performed filmic conversation on queer and black world making.
A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
Dir. Nicolas Philibert
Documentary of La Borde clinic in France and its radical politics of experimentation, in which residents and staff reciprocate in a kind of entanglement, an opening up amongst themselves.
A crash-course in pre-figurative, radical, queer, anti-racist, anti-police, anti-prison, anti-deportation abolitionist politics and trans-resistance.
Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
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.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
