Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.
A joyful conversation discussing disability, gender transition and care labour as expressions of virtuosic and innovative skills that make care – good care – possible.

The 2006 INSTAL festival saw a broad selection of artists that included Blood Stereo and Ludo Mich, Ellen Fullman and Sean Meehan, Keiji Haino and Tony Conrad and a specially created performance by Maryanne Amacher.
Now a two day festival, INSTAL 04 was borne of a desire to open eyes, challenge audiences and expand musical horizons. This was also the year in which a certain representative from Corwood Industries made his first ever live appearance.
Conceived of as a dual publication, video cassette and booklet, to be presented as an installation. The content of the videotape is the artist watching television.
A chill sex worker only breakfast hang, hosted by Scotland for Decrim, with delicious vegan, vegetarian, meaty, gluten free options & fresh coffee. (Both present & past lived experience welcome).
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
A whistle stop tour of visual and material culture that has anchored the sex workers rights movement through the decades until today.
