A specially commissioned performance for organ. “The course of the stars were to be put to sound.”

UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.

A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.
A sound diffusion piece by Glasgow University’s Musica Electronica, and a further selection of electroacoustic performances.

Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
Includes: tamed TV snow, video feedback of racing particles, a remake of a polish photogram film destroyed in WWII, a visual and aural representation of Gestalt theory, hole-punched film and Guy Sherwin’s Cycles 3 double-projection.
