A socio-poetic reading on wayward communities – The wayward create upheavals, incite tumult. They come and go as they please; they are fugitive; they are in open rebellion against society.
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
Setting up a minimal procedure to explore the interaction between a person and the (documentary) film/ video process. What initially seems simple ends up contrarily distanced and intimate, public and private.
An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
A life force of ecstatic clarity capable of loquacious bursts of affirmation.
What does it mean to listen with the mind as well as the ears? A solo performance from the great avant-garde pianist.
Acoustic turntable, engines, trumpet and accordion joined by Bassist Magarida Garcia: build long-form quietly detailed pieces that clatter and rumble, that expand and contract with the tension and release of deeply held breath.
Paper Piece: Secrets is a performance for and with the whole audience, using paper, text, secrets, being in the crowd
A testimony to poverty from Chris’s own experiences, and an invitation to engage with an all too typical situation and context through a kind of imaginary listening.
Paul Sharits is one of our all time heroes, and one of the great artist filmmakers of the 20th Century.
A back and forth between Fred and Fernando on the transits and obstructions between mathematics and poetics, and how both help us to think from the other side.
