A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
With lo-fi dreams and high-def humor, Bande brings MC vibes to the day. Interluding music with spoken performance, the live extimacy of Bande’s presence reaches out via emo-techno-bridges.
Ubuntu Women Shelter, National Ugly Mugs and the Sex Workers Union warmly invite you to a generative conversation (and Q&A) about the needs and rights of migrant sex workers in Scotland.
Miniscule free-noise hissy-fits and broken instrument scrape/ squeal jams from the fools what brought you Giant Tank.
A performed filmic conversation on queer and black world making.
Complexly interacting colossal drones by the creator of some of the most legendary yet least heard music of the 70’s.
For musical chameleon Richard Youngs both his creative and family life are focused in the room that many of us consider the centre piece of our lives.
An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
60 minutes of hard ass minimal film, projected onto a weather balloon and accompanied by the inspired poetic rant of a visionary Frenchman.
Nothing if not repetitive, film is founded on the incremental succession of minute difference. But how does repetition of the same play out, and is it a tool to comment on the standardising repetition of the mass media?
Can we find ideas of queer anarchism, failure and low theory in popular culture?
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
