Performances at Anthology Film Archives NY by Jandek, Loren Mazzacane Connors & Alan Licht, and MV & EE.
How can we imagine bodies not as an end in themselves, but as a medium through which we can become one another’s means?

A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
Harrowing but musical confrontations with the very real, physical and aural trauma of a woman screaming.
Simple maths and stringent scored instructions move precise frequencies and clicks to create a dense, fluctuating environment of standing waves and physical sound.

Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
Solo organ performance by German composer Eva-Maria Houben, which focuses on ‘nearly nothing’ to expand the way we listen.
Italian duo of brothers Maurizio and Roberto Opalio utilising an array of acoustic and electric guitars, various toy-instruments and toy-microphones.

Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
