Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
Beatriz will explore her thinking, on film as translation, plural subjectivity or land-based militancy. Discussion will centre around her work Oriana and its companion piece Oenanthe, which will be screened in full.

A live installation of the ‘Film Ist’: projected on 4 huge screens and an improvised soundtrack from 4 figureheads of the Austrian experimental music scene.

The Scottish based Paragon Ensemble has commissioned David Fennessy to compose music for Instal, which will be performed during the evening.

A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
One of the most influential groups in improvised music, with the collective understanding that comes from listening keenly to each other for decades
