Austrian guitarist who specialises in a warm digital deconstruction of guitar noise
Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
Includes: a classic of innovative computer graphics, ex-pat Scot McLaren on form, a riotous psychedelic oil show with a Soft Machine accompaniment, subtle manipulation of data feedback, a colourful road movie and a reworking of a lost Paul Sharits film.

Jandek’s first ever live performance. Unannounced, the performance was a total surprise for everybody at the festival.
A workshop inviting participants to enact a series of scores that explore witnessing, testimony, grief and mourning, facilitated by Mezna and Sadia, and accompanied by Sakina Ali.
Quasi-theatrical multiple-projector pieces play with the relationship between performers, art and audiences.

Harrowing but musical confrontations with the very real, physical and aural trauma of a woman screaming.
A series of badly felted lock-ups and garages + multiple locations within the Megastructure – a purpose built town centre in one building, comprising (in the 50’s at least) of housing (never occupied), shops, apartments, a hotel, ice rink, police station and other amenities
