Performances at St Giles in the Fields, London by Jandek, Rhodri Davies & Angharad Davies, Rauhan Orkesteri.
Sonic ‘observations’ of the world, through micro recordings on a tiny scale and transformed into something musically compelling.
Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
A multi-media harp and spoken word tribute to the incalculable, the in-deducible, the suspicious static noise that accompanies the voice of truth, and the attempted aberrations in the domain of emergence.
Jandek’s first ever live performance. Unannounced, the performance was a total surprise for everybody at the festival.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
The Tower performance at KYTN throws into that mix the 70’s fluxus light shows and films of Jeff Perkins and other filmic interventions tuned to their unique frequency.
Listening to people listening to their own homes. Musicians and actors will listen back to recordings made in local peoples homes on headphones, and interpret/ translate what they are hearing.
60 cycle hums, jagged static cracklings, and clipped electron pinpricks, mutating them into sublime, post-techno grooves
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
