Percussion used to explore the social construction of space
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
Noise music for the eyes: projectors turned into instruments, B&W film loops into a thrumming riot of colour, motion and sound.
One of the most compelling Indigenous voices of her generation discusses practices of Indigenous Resurgence drawn from Nishnaabeg poetic knowledge.
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
Chip will read some of his great literary pornography, which pushes sexuality to the point of extremity and exhaustion.

A loud, buzzing stew of electrical light as noise and convulsive electric guitar squall.
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
Duo performance by two great French musique concrète improvisers using feedback, contact mics, tape, an old Revox tape machine, a vintage synth…
An extravagant debauch of huge pianos, plush toys, cognac and ritual.
