Three days of discussions, performances, actions, dancing and food – continuing No Total’s ongoing contemplation of ways of being together and the ways Arika have been entangled in those, ever since Episode 4.
5 days of film, music, discussion and study of our collective incompleteness—arrayed against the colonial ordering of how we come to know the world—practicing how we might exist otherwise, right here and now. Can we start to know and practice the world to come?
A recorded a conversation that grounds the Episode, exploring Ailton Krenak’s thinking and distinct poetics of life; as it work against capitalism and fascism, as a denunciation of political alliances, and maybe even of ‘politics’.
Electronic music, time, thought, the word, and consecutive matters
Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
Sonic ‘observations’ of the world, through micro recordings on a tiny scale and transformed into something musically compelling.
A beautifully crisp, slowly evolving duo for cello and projected images. Abstract but still figurative; change only noticeable after the fact.
Out of a dark haze, shafts of light emerge, as the emulsion is scratched from the surface of the film. Simultaneously, out of the black silence, noise and audible scratches bloom into a bright drone.
A collaborative duo performance, Anoyonodekigoto sets up a sort of negotiation between a musician, a dancer, the audience and the space we’re all sharing.
This event honoured those individuals who achieved the status of Icon during the period of 1986-1990.
