A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
A landmark film on black life – a poetic filmic constellation of meditations, fragments and interviews on what it means to be black in America in the 21st century, from one of its great cinematographers.
Hijokaidan rapidly built a following due to the overwhelmingly physical intensity of their live performances, often involving destructive onstage rituals of vomit, urine, mangled guitars and ear shredding volume.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an old underground reservoir in Fife.

Rhodri Davies plays two deconstructed harps. Lee Patterson examines the sonic properties of burning nuts.
