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.
The Echo project is an installation as audio guide for a crowd. And at the same time it’s a private conversation: with you, as one of 20 people in a room, a sort of public intimacy.
A 100 strong Feral Choir of people who’ve never improvised with their voices before, conducted by composer Phil Minton.

Robin Hayward – exploring the micro-sounds of a tuba, filling slowly with sand.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.

Voguing, drag, clubbing, and the politics of communities making different performances of gender and sexuality visible.
Ian and Gil will host a discussion on the Argument project’s social and political commentaries, and with you try and maybe think through whether and how they might still have some currency today: what’s changed and what’s stayed the same?
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
A crash-course in pre-figurative, radical, queer, anti-racist, anti-police, anti-prison, anti-deportation abolitionist politics and trans-resistance.
Taking a scalpel to the relationship between performer and audience: cutting something out to see what’s left, a drastic subtraction and shift of emphasis.
Out holler/ howl of English pukenoise posterboys exploded by incessant insect chatter of Northern fug dweller.
