Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.

ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
An immersive live performance for multiple 16mm film and bass clarinet, taking in the whole gallery, submerging the audience.
Audio signals pass through light bulbs, causing the filaments of the bulbs to sing and crackle in a chorus of electronic static.

How do poetry and maths stitch together pictures of our fractured situation from its wreckage and relics, from the debris of hope and the well of residues that make us what we are?
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
Post consideration and post rationalisation… How do we think about experimental music and film after the performance?
Arrive, get settled, be hosted and meet-up in IRL and URL.
