A parody of a (Manhattan) road movie and meditation on bifurcation, in paths traveled between the seen and the heard; a road trip played over and over from different perspectives.
Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
One of the most arresting and unique improvisers in Japan, creating an original and powerful body of free music.
A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
Joe Colley specialises in hotwired sound constructions full of ominous electronic disturbances and caustic, noxious drones. For KYTN, Joe created a situation of controlled chaos with 50 light sensitive oscillators placed in a field of candles.

Solo organ performance by German composer Eva-Maria Houben, which focuses on ‘nearly nothing’ to expand the way we listen.
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.
Expansive and considered, inclusive and deeply human minimalism: Antoine Beuger, Radu Malfatti, Manfred Werder.
Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
