Summer Solstice hang out IRL and URL on 21 June
 
A programme of discontinuity between narration, text and image. Including Manual Saiz’s employment of John Malkovich’s Spanish dubbing double and Peter Rose’s absurdly hilarious concrete poetry subtitling chaos.
 
Glasgow based artist Defaalt invites the audience to collaborate fully in his performance by means of a generative graphical interface.
 
A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.
 
Paul Sharits is one of our all time heroes, and one of the great artist filmmakers of the 20th Century.
 
Performing with hand built radio transmitters, which react to interference in the atmosphere and the electrical impedance of his hands, his radio art is a form of social practice; a statement in opposition to mass media.
 
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
 
Performances at Anthology Film Archives NY by Jandek, Loren Mazzacane Connors & Alan Licht, and MV & EE.
 
Leading language/ action/ sound poet performed his groundbreaking concrete poem, a dizzying mandala of text, symbols and rubber stamps; a kind of book as reading machine.
 
Cardboard boxes, metal guitar, critical homage, attempts to describe things you can’t describe. A one-man Grand Guignol school play.
 
A performance for projectionist, musicians and audience, which plays with references to Oscar Levant and Gershwin: apparently a series of small doses of chaos.
 
Dave will lead a session created for teenagers and designed to stimulate a supportive environment for artistic exploration through music improvisation.
