Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
This mini, late-night ball will include categories inspired by the events earlier in the weekend.
An informal conversation, over breakfast, about how abolition and movement work structures Mijke and Nat’s approach to transfeminism, ahead of their new book Trans Femme Futures.
A queer black operatic requiem for piano and voice that asks us to stay in the hold of the slave ship, that tries to understand the connection from the slave ship to the prison.
Take a break and/ or hang in an Open Meet Up in IRL and URL
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
Like walking through the abstracted amalgamation of 30 or so storms, trays of water shaken by thunder, light bouncing off pools.
‘Ten Pieces in the Form of Painful Variations’ for piano, an impossible score that looks like a grapeshot musical stave, a text of barbed loathing and doubt – an anti-composition.
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
A discussion about what is at stake in the performance of realness and the practice of passing, and how they are both acts of survival and resistance.
