Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
A meditation on how all of us perform — sometimes reinforcing, sometimes subverting — the shifting categories of gender, sexuality and race.
A chat, with examples (Zola, H. P. Lovecraft, Hammer Horror), about blackness and the sheer stupid thickness of what has no profundity whatsoever.
A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
This session focuses in on the defiant mutual aid practices of early and DIY feminist movements in the UK, that attempted to shift and radicalise care and kinship away from the domain of the nuclear family.
Inhabiting a different kind of energy, Ueinzz’s open rehearsals reveal a glimpse into their ongoing daily theatrical modes of caring – multiplying the ways in which their plays are meant to be felt, rather than understood.
Birthed from the collective stagger in global consciousness of the late 50’s and 60’s, this programme celebrates epochal, groundbreaking films that all address sound in their own way and that have opened pathways to experimentation.
A riot of 60’s psychedelia, magick, ritual and tight black leather, this programme highlights underground innovators who use and subvert pop music for their own experimental ends; and be warned, in Anger, there’s real darkness.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A temporary archive and research space tracing the ways in which sound and audition move through everyday life.
An improvisation that may or may not involve (typical) improvisation.
