Performances at Anthology Film Archives NY by Jandek, Loren Mazzacane Connors & Alan Licht, and MV & EE.
A recreation of one of Gustav Metzger’s celebrated auto destructive performances.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
Avant-wrongdoers Blood Stereo performing in Garthamlock the town spawned them.
John Butcher plays and manipulates a feeding back saxophone. Benedict Drew on electronics, broken cables and standing waves.
A performance for projectionist, musicians and audience, which plays with references to Oscar Levant and Gershwin: apparently a series of small doses of chaos.
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
UNINSTAL was a set of events at Tramway that tested out radical ideas with leading local and international artists. A collection of events (performances, films, installations, walks and talks) about sound and listening.
A dense, hard, immersive, chaotic spatial performance in sound: a momentary gap in consciousness, free of order or decision.
A performance by Storyboard P – one of the greatest Afrofuturist dancers on the planet.
The first of two workshops that highlight correspondence as a way of working. Somewhere between song, speech, and logistical arrangement, these workshops invite participants to consider care as infrastructure.
