An immersive live performance for multiple 16mm film and bass clarinet, taking in the whole gallery, submerging the audience.

Avant-wrongdoers Blood Stereo performing in Garthamlock the town spawned them.
Can we use sound, repetition and difference to personally and collectively engage with space, time and labour?
Boston duo of saxophonist Bhob Rainey and trumpeter Greg Kelley approach their improvisations with a slew if extended techniques and pregnant silences.
