Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.
Birthed from the collective stagger in global consciousness of the late 50’s and 60’s, this programme celebrates epochal, groundbreaking films that all address sound in their own way and that have opened pathways to experimentation.
Inspired by Delany’s Aye, and Gomorra. A spookily filmic world where asexual bodies live in the contradiction of their unarousable loneliness and desire for intimacy and contact.
Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
Conceptual choreography as critique, in Ligia’s film of Caribbean plots and scandals, and the possibilities of anti-colonial revenge, rest and repair.
Inhabiting a different kind of energy, Ueinzz’s open rehearsals reveal a glimpse into their ongoing daily theatrical modes of caring – multiplying the ways in which their plays are meant to be felt, rather than understood.

Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.
