Glasgow. Low-end drone guitarage army in praise of the open chord.
Sonic ‘observations’ of the world, through micro recordings on a tiny scale and transformed into something musically compelling.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A short chat about what we (Arika) might be trying to do with our program for the Biennial.
Glasgow. Power electronic klutz behaviour by Kovorox sound head-honcho. Bruised bodies and broken microphones.
A trance inducing, flickering investigation of structural and minimalist droning from one of the key thinkers in sound and image over the last 50 years
