A delicate and detailed walk through the urban and rural landscape around Dundee; a poetic focus on the details found. A performance for 16mm projection and live amplified objects (maybe pine cones, maybe a coke bottle).
An open conversation around the history and practices of the Ueinzz Theatre Company – a radical Brazilian schizoscenic theatre company of carers, so-called psychotic patients and philosophers.
A poetic multi-screen performance about “the inadequacy of the arbitrary passing moment and the impossibility of permanence”. About time and change.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.

A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
Emotional fantasies, towers of cakes, identity troubles, collapsed distance and time and Samuel R. Delany’s rarely seen 1971 film The Orchid.
The weeks previous TLRS daily radio shows, after-hours conversations, radio booths and special guests reassembled as a live electroacoustic performance.
