Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
Three workshops lead up to an open invitation to improvise with the festival as concert.

A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
Christian Bök‘s work spans thrillingly conceptual poetry to body-shaking vocal performances.
A system in which film is projected onto copper strips, captured again and then re-projected as video, somehow transforming the original imagery into molasses-slow, molten and incredibly tactile flickers of colour and light.
