Sound and image slipping out of synch and into discord, the programme includes (in London at least) a very special version of Hollis Frampton’s masterful (nostalgia) with a live narration by Michael Snow.
Patented 60 cycle hums, static pops, and terse electron pinpricks mutated into perfect, post-techno grooves and synaesthesic video
Daniel Carter & Sabir Mateen’s trio with percussionist Andrew Barker; incessantly driving forward through sweat-drenched bursts of pure ecstatic freedom.
A temporary archive and research space tracing the ways in which sound and audition move through everyday life.
A queer black operatic requiem for piano and voice that asks us to stay in the hold of the slave ship, that tries to understand the connection from the slave ship to the prison.
Is it possible to dance our way out of the hardened stances and identity prisons we are locked in?
Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
An utterly deep introspection told in aching, weeping guitar lines; melodic, simple, always minimal but somehow entirely epic.
Paul Sharits is one of our all time heroes, and one of the great artist filmmakers of the 20th Century.
Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.
