There are core ways in which our listening to the radio differs from other kinds of listening. What happens when we pay attention to how we pay attention?
ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
Poems are kisses, fists, and underground rivers. For all these reasons and many more, I am a poet.
Listening to people listening to their own homes. Musicians and actors will listen back to recordings made in local peoples homes on headphones, and interpret/ translate what they are hearing.
A silent performance of (musical) reverberation.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
A multi-media harp and spoken word tribute to the incalculable, the in-deducible, the suspicious static noise that accompanies the voice of truth, and the attempted aberrations in the domain of emergence.
Sound and image slipping out of synch and into discord, the programme includes (in London at least) a very special version of Hollis Frampton’s masterful (nostalgia) with a live narration by Michael Snow.
Loïc and Marc are proposing a series of investigations into the tension between improvisation and recording and how it can be used to engage with different spaces and environments around Dundee
Durational group-mind drone and clatter: bamboo, electronics, the contents of your local ironmongers bin. A 3-hour set from this legendary Japanese improvisation group.
French improviser, composer, writer & musical thinker of dry humour and elegant clarity. Sly conjurer of music from the unconsidered processes of music making.
