Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
The pieces in the programme switch between silent film/ imageless sound, but we wanted to have a think about how ideas can take up residency on either side of the sound/ image border, without having to inhabit both at the same time.
Ray and Thomas talking about how cognitive neuroscience is unlocking the physical basis of personal experience.
5 days of film, music, discussion and study of our collective incompleteness—arrayed against the colonial ordering of how we come to know the world—practicing how we might exist otherwise, right here and now. Can we start to know and practice the world to come?
Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
How do you know what you want? Should freedom be doing what you ought, not doing what you want? How might a philosopher and artist turn this thinking into an enabling condition in the context of noise and improvisation?
A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!
Vanessa Place talks at The Friday Event series at the Glasgow School of Art about her practice as a writer.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
A conversation about the movement for prison abolition and refusing the logic of race and sex that underpins the criminalisation and mass incarceration of communities.
Three days of discussions, performances, actions, dancing and food – continuing No Total’s ongoing contemplation of ways of being together and the ways Arika have been entangled in those, ever since Episode 4.
During Episode 9 we made this clip with Storyboard P at Kinning Park Complex. Video by Ash Reid.
An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
