Join Ståle Holgerson to discuss his new book Against the Crisis, hosted by Glasgow Housing Struggle Archive
A preposterously heavy, eye of the storm musical tug of war, in which two drummers, electronics and electric guitar fall over each other in a droning crush.
A testimony to poverty from Chris’s own experiences, and an invitation to engage with an all too typical situation and context through a kind of imaginary listening.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
A kind of performed installation of searing noise and silence, where we’re not sure who the performer is, when it starts or ends or even who it’s for.
Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
Ellis’s processional, precessional cessation and continuation of movement and music comes to us via his forthcoming release Aster of Ceremonies (Milkweed Editions, 2023)
Noise music for the eyes: projectors turned into instruments, B&W film loops into a thrumming riot of colour, motion and sound.
Where we join Nackt Insecten’s disembodied spectral howls and heavyweight locomotive drones about SPT’s Subway.
How can we imagine bodies not as an end in themselves, but as a medium through which we can become one another’s means?
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
