Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
Junko’s screaming vocal in a nuanced, piercing duo with Urabe’s fuming and convulsive saxophone, far removed from the codes of musical tradition.
A specially commissioned performance for organ. “The course of the stars were to be put to sound.”
Glasgow based artist Defaalt invites the audience to collaborate fully in his performance by means of a generative graphical interface.
Rather than asking the state for services, what kinds of change are made possible when we prioritise people supporting each other?
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
Trans-temporal drag, sexuality and the re-staging of illegible moments in history.
Three intimate 45 minute sessions, readings of your political questions – using Tarot, Palmistry, Reiki, Astrology, and Philosophy, and the invented methods of Fake and Political Therapy.
Acoustic turntable, engines, trumpet and accordion joined by Bassist Magarida Garcia: build long-form quietly detailed pieces that clatter and rumble, that expand and contract with the tension and release of deeply held breath.
A series of reality dramas happening over the course of the weekend.
Sparse and miniature free thought workouts involving guitar, vocals and tuba.
