Freeform Super 8mm documentation of Sunday at Instal 06 by filmmaker Matt Hulse.
A collaborative duo performance, Anoyonodekigoto sets up a sort of negotiation between a musician, a dancer, the audience and the space we’re all sharing.
No Wave, damaged garage jams and crazed instant vocal shrieks.
Haino exceeds expectation with a 4 hour solo performance on a collection of more than forty instruments from all over the world.
The weeks previous TLRS daily radio shows, after-hours conversations, radio booths and special guests reassembled as a live electroacoustic performance.
A speculative narrative film informed by poetry and theories of quantum entanglement across diasporic distance. An intimate exploration of grief and resistance in shifting landscapes of loss, from the streets to the bed.
Guy Sherwin gives a kind of annotated, chat through his optical sound films
Mashed up queer fantasy of worker’s revolts, biblical demons and present-day hells, and dubbed out cyborg-electro.
Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
A cast of pioneering and provocative spirits who exist outside the mainstream, between borders and definitions; a series of events that each explore different aspects of music that doesn’t quite fit any given category. INSTAL 08 included the Self-Cancellation project.
Do almost nothing: re-present (unaltered and arranged by chance) silent family home movies handed down to Flo, (Ken’s wife) and follow them with a “teach yourself Yiddish” cassette tape.
A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
