A trance inducing, flickering investigation of structural and minimalist droning from one of the key thinkers in sound and image over the last 50 years
A temporary archive and research space tracing the ways in which sound and audition move through everyday life.

A riot of 60’s psychedelia, magick, ritual and tight black leather, this programme highlights underground innovators who use and subvert pop music for their own experimental ends; and be warned, in Anger, there’s real darkness.
An open-ended moment in an ongoing series of films, notes, performances, diagrams and drawings which trace the questions they share. A “porous space between cinema time-space and lived time-space.”
An audio report for the NATOarts board of directors that seeks to promote global security and stability through the exhibition of works of conceptual art.
Ray and Thomas talking about how cognitive neuroscience is unlocking the physical basis of personal experience.
A spectacular musical show which discusses the representation of a nation state, its characters and history. A learning play on myth construction and its reproduction.
Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
A 100 strong Feral Choir of people who’ve never improvised with their voices before, conducted by composer Phil Minton.
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
