Paul Sharits is one of our all time heroes, and one of the great artist filmmakers of the 20th Century.
A performance by Storyboard P – one of the greatest Afrofuturist dancers on the planet.
The films in the programme take the essential and fundamental building blocks of cinema (combining sound and image through time) screw about with them, interrogate them and cast them anew.
Laser beam sine tones used to draw delicate, abstract patterns by vibrating charcoal, placed atop of a great strip of paper running through the gallery; beautiful, fragile sound-created autonomous drawing.
Arika is proud to be one of several arts organisations in Scotland supporting the commissioning of a radical new manifesto, by and for disabled artists working in Scotland.
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.
A recording session for BBC Radio Scotland under the M74 ‘Ski Jump’ extension ramp, a secion of motorway that doesn’t go anywhere, one of several such structures that populate the motorway system in the centre of Glasgow.
Guitar solo where inscrutable, minute electric sounds are excavated by palms that smother and strangle, that wring sound from the fretboard, from behind the bridge.
Heat-mapped bodies, found porn films, Korean psyche-folk, creepy police intrusion and self-defence.
Real-time video feedback loops submerged in laminal sheets of sound soaked in gauzy timbral detail and multi-valenced, buzzing overtones.
A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
