Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
Ken presents his Nervous Magic Lantern, wherein film itself is forsaken for an investigation of hypnotic and trancelike crystaline forms. Eric La Casa works with recordings of everyday occurrences: the background hum of place.
A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
A temporary archive and research space tracing the ways in which sound and audition move through everyday life.
A programme that looks at how sound and image can be treated as variants in a collection of ordered objects; at how to create meaning from the similar, and to notice difference.
This mini, late-night ball will include categories inspired by the events earlier in the weekend.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.

Can we find ideas of queer anarchism, failure and low theory in popular culture?
Thuja specialise in a unique and abstract folk music, a devoutly organic tapestry deeply rooted in the sway and bow of nature.
A live installation of the ‘Film Ist’: projected on 4 huge screens and an improvised soundtrack from 4 figureheads of the Austrian experimental music scene.
