A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
A performed, open, public conversation about how we might think politics from the position of intuition, in which Denise and Valentina use un-reasonable tools to map out a hybrid poetical/ ethical reading of their own situations.
Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
Using violin and cello the duo map out a twilight sonic world that seems to tread the faultlines between improvisation and composition.
A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
Each film in this programme celebrates process; the decay of emulsion, the properties of dust and dirt, the manipulation of time. Post the dawn of the digital age, we reflect on our love of the film form, celluloid as an object, a medium and a physical entity.
A dense, hard, immersive, chaotic spatial performance in sound: a momentary gap in consciousness, free of order or decision.
What does it mean to listen with the mind as well as the ears? A solo performance from the great avant-garde pianist.
One of the most startling cinematic debuts on record, The Flicker is more a hallucination than a film, an out of body experience and riotous celebration of visual harmonics frequencies. An experiment in perception, come with your mind and eyes open.
Performance of a Sudoko based graphic score giving rise to a process of self cancellation.
A simple hands on workshop with micro-radio theorist and pioneer Kogawa.
Glasgow. Low-end drone guitarage army in praise of the open chord.
