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 joyful conversation discussing disability, gender transition and care labour as expressions of virtuosic and innovative skills that make care – good care – possible.
A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
Is it possible to dance our way out of the hardened stances and identity prisons we are locked in?
A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
Every aspect of every film is always about more than just film. Or, as Godard said: a tracking shot is a moral issue. A cross between a festival, magazine and discussion about experimental artists’ films.
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
A queer black operatic requiem for piano and voice that asks us to stay in the hold of the slave ship, that tries to understand the connection from the slave ship to the prison.
Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
Slowly evolving ultra-subtle harmonics and multi-tracked, otherworldly drones that only reveal their true power at high volume.
William cradles, hammers, and rains down blows, plucking and using 2 bows to attack the strings above and below the bridge, all in the service of a fiery and passionate creativity.
Three intense solo performances for drums (both played and screamed through), cymbal, voice, credit card, bird whistle, and guitar amplifier/leads.
