A performance by Storyboard P – one of the greatest Afrofuturist dancers on the planet.
Solo performance by Diamanda Galás one of the great artists of the last forty years. Hers is an emotional expressionism of demonic shrieks, operatic falsettos, glottal clicks and diabolical growls.
A poetic multi-screen performance about “the inadequacy of the arbitrary passing moment and the impossibility of permanence”. About time and change.
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
Munehiro Narita’s Kyoaku No Intention (Worst Intentions) fired out some of the most compelling no-wave improvised rock of the 80s.
Guitar and voice. Keening, droning and mourning. Be ready to release and bring your dis-ease.
As part of Karrabing’s visit to Scotland, the collective will be hosted for three days in the Isle of Skye by The School of Plural Futures.
Three short performances involving social exchange (jumpers, hats, glasses…) and singing (ballads)
We wanted to ask a bunch of the best high-energy-improvisers around; can musical form really taking shape via a group energy? Can individual concentration lead to a group consciousness?
A trance inducing, flickering investigation of structural and minimalist droning from one of the key thinkers in sound and image over the last 50 years
A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.
Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
