An open-ended moment in an ongoing series of films, notes, performances, diagrams and drawings which trace the questions they share. A “porous space between cinema time-space and lived time-space.”
Kenneth Goldsmith reads extracts of his conceptual poetry and Achim Wollscheid manipulates mobile phone signals.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A loud, buzzing stew of electrical light as noise and convulsive electric guitar squall.
Guitar and voice. Keening, droning and mourning. Be ready to release and bring your dis-ease.
Sound as it is endured by space and the body: 15 participants lie face down and pound the floor with a microphone one thousand times, each person choosing their own rhythm and intensity.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
Recently rediscovered but still very pertinent, Kino Beleške presents a series of speech acts and performative gestures by protagonists of the new artistic practice in former Yugoslavia: each a personal take on the role of art in society.
Simon Morris is joined by Nick Thurston as they attempt to read aloud whilst peddling on exercise bikes.
A chat with Rashad about the communist, conceptual methodology that informs his ground-breaking synthetic music—a form of speculative sonic fiction writing to produce hyperreal non-representational auditive experiences.
An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
