A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.
A poetic multi-screen performance about “the inadequacy of the arbitrary passing moment and the impossibility of permanence”. About time and change.
Merzbow takes the junk of sound and transforms it into blistering noise assaults with an incredible spectrum and impact.
Bruno’s liberated improvisational approach stretches beyond the lyrical, tough as nails rhythmic bursts and expressive, swinging attack of his drumming.
Ecstatic, intensely joyous experimental club music: like “the sound of our water ceremonies…40 bands playing their melodies at once to recreate the cacophony of the first aurora and the call of the morning star Venus”.
I wanna be with you everywhere is an everywhere gathering envisioned for and by disability communities and anyone who wants to get with us. IWBWYE returns to Performance Space and any space on June 21 for an outdoor pop-up and hybridized event.
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
A celebration of our overabundant social entanglement and complicity, that remind us of how we can see ourselves, stripped of powers’ attempts to grasp us.
The most sophisticated synthetic music around: timbrally otherwise body music as sonified fictions and auditive sociograms.
Now a two day festival, INSTAL 04 was borne of a desire to open eyes, challenge audiences and expand musical horizons. This was also the year in which a certain representative from Corwood Industries made his first ever live appearance.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
