Robin Hayward – exploring the micro-sounds of a tuba, filling slowly with sand.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Post consideration and post rationalisation… How do we think about experimental music and film after the performance?
Inspired by the supernatural horror of H. P. Lovecraft, black metal and a sense of worry as to what constitutes an object, or a world.
Dead Labour Process drool-tape farmer, squeaking/creaking Usurper brother and Peeesseye’s yodelling traps-man hold a real OUT splutter party.
An open collaborative workshop space in which games, warm-up sessions, exercises and scenes are potentially the same thing, through which to project your own concerns onto the stage.

Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
Some of the most breathtaking, delicate and smoke filled guitar playing this side of Loren Connors or the quieter sides of Keiji Haino.
