Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
A simple, gracefully bold set-up to allow Loïc to trace connections: of comments upon comments upon comments, of sounds next to sounds next to sounds.

A Study Session focused on the thinking of Ailton Krenak – one of the great leaders of the Brazilian indigenous movement – led by curators and artists Amilcar Packer Arissana Pataxó.
A chat with Rashad about the communist, conceptual methodology that informs his ground-breaking synthetic music—a form of speculative sonic fiction writing to produce hyperreal non-representational auditive experiences.
