A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
Amid the blur of erotics, the jangle of poetics, and the fetishizing of sickness and disability, the heat of Panteha’s performance and sculpture freezes all.
A prison abolitionist punk video-poetry-music mash up about our fucked-up dystopian society, RoboCop, kids toys and criminality.
Boston duo of saxophonist Bhob Rainey and trumpeter Greg Kelley approach their improvisations with a slew if extended techniques and pregnant silences.
Cardboard boxes, metal guitar, critical homage, attempts to describe things you can’t describe. A one-man Grand Guignol school play.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
Expansive and considered, inclusive and deeply human minimalism: Antoine Beuger, Radu Malfatti, Manfred Werder.
Arrive, get settled, be hosted and meet-up in IRL and URL.
