A performance of Ueinzz’s new play. Each Ueinzz performance is a process of reinvention, between exhaustion and a fleeting vision: singular, collective, anonymous, plural, suspensive, intensive, unworking life.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
Audio signals pass through light bulbs, causing the filaments of the bulbs to sing and crackle in a chorus of electronic static.
Radu plays a trombone, Klaus creates pure sine waves: they sound on their own, or sometimes together and often with considerable space and silence.

Freak-out group for the 21st century perform a live soundtrack to Ira Cohen’s infamous psychedelic masterpiece ‘The Invasion of Thunderbolt Pagoda’
Bleu Shut reveals, and allows us to enjoy, our gullibility within the pervasive absurdity of modern life.
Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
Why won’t the idea of the particle or individual go away? Is the measurement problem in physics a documentary film issue? What can a human be without its crutches of life-time and measure?
An extravagant debauch of huge pianos, plush toys, cognac and ritual.
