Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an abandoned oil tanker on Hoy.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.

Now a two day festival, INSTAL 04 was borne of a desire to open eyes, challenge audiences and expand musical horizons. This was also the year in which a certain representative from Corwood Industries made his first ever live appearance.
A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
Join Brian as he ruminates on the history of how experimental filmmakers and sound artists have drifted into and taken over galleries in order to show their work.
