Coming to us from Taipei, Yo-Yo sends us elsewhere while bringing us back with her to the timezone of tomorrow. A dancer, media artist, and choreographer who makes multi-dimensions and realms, Lin’s amplification of energies and connections across bodies devolves the separations we are taught to abide.
Each organ is unique. The project is to find out what makes it unique.
Work that focuses in on the static hiss and background noise of recording and pushes it to the fore.
Fernando thinks that when maths is deep, it should be simple and able to be explained by hand gestures. By embodying ideas, we’re able to more clearly think about their cultural implications.
A performed filmic conversation on queer and black world making.
Psychedelic and intense, and featuring some of the most visually stunning, mesmerizing and transcendent experiences you can imagine, batten down the hatches for some of the boldest, most immersive and abrasive works in experimental cinema.
Work for cello, percussion, contra bassoon and cherbulum commissioned for Instal in collaboration with Paragon
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
TEST is a collective creative improvising quartet based out of the NYC Underground (figuratively and literally). Their street-hardened, spatial Jazz is riotous and intense: is also makes us think about collective organization, and different ideas of responsibility and liberty.
A solo improvisation using just the situation of the concert: a space, a PA, Mattin’s own thoughts, you, the audience.
