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.
Includes: solar flares, insect fireworks, a new film from Ian Helliwell, pulsating glaciers, an apple being eaten alive, sea ravaged stock, crushed blackberries and film that has literally risen from the grave.
An immersive live performance for multiple 16mm film and bass clarinet, taking in the whole gallery, submerging the audience.

The Cube is a 6 hour performed installation in which sound and image are treated as independent but equal, where musicians and filmmakers sit alongside each other, improvise to and feed off both projected image and amplified and acoustic sound.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
A temporary archive and research space tracing the ways in which sound and audition move through everyday life.
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
Expansive and considered, inclusive and deeply human minimalism: Antoine Beuger, Radu Malfatti, Manfred Werder.
Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
Reveling in the geometric, mathematical and perceptual relationship between sound and form, this programme features a landmark work of experimental film in Kubelka’s Arnulf Rainer; a complex, enduring and expressive of structuralist or flicker films.
