Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
Nikos played every note that it’s possible to play on the cello, all played back as a one hour drone, while the cello was turned to powder and bottled.
A dense, hard, immersive, chaotic spatial performance in sound: a momentary gap in consciousness, free of order or decision.
A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
Three documentary films exploring diverse realities of sex workers around the world followed by a closing ceremony of the festival.
60 minutes of hard ass minimal film, projected onto a weather balloon and accompanied by the inspired poetic rant of a visionary Frenchman.
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
Now a two day festival, INSTAL 04 was borne of a desire to open eyes, challenge audiences and expand musical horizons. This was also the year in which a certain representative from Corwood Industries made his first ever live appearance.
Smith/Stewart set up allegorical situations over which they often have little to no control, but which instigate explorations of dependence and trust, the body, sex and death.
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
