Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
Reveling in the geometric, mathematical and perceptual relationship between sound and form, this programme features a landmark work of experimental film in Kubelka’s Arnulf Rainer; a complex, enduring and expressive of structuralist or flicker films.
A 3-day exploration – through performance, screenings and discussion – of the art and politics of wayward communities who refuse to be bound by the fictions of race and sex.
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
HEAVY Japanese super group, featuring the sundown delta blues of Kan Mikami, Toshi Ishizuka’s heavy, time folding drumming and Masayoshi Urabe on sax, harmonica and chains.
A preposterously heavy, eye of the storm musical tug of war, in which two drummers, electronics and electric guitar fall over each other in a droning crush.
The reknowned artist Kjell Bjørgeengen works collaboratively with innovative musicians to make complex installations. Channels of flickering light are produced in response to and from sound.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
