A kind of an informal overview of INSTAL.
 
A Feral Choir of people who’ve never improvised with their voices before, conducted by improviser yodeller, composer Phil Minton.
 
Life and death dramas unfold in the snowy American North, using three-screen documentary footage and a soundtrack by KYTN favourite, vocalist Daniel Menche.
 
An immersive live performance for multiple 16mm film and bass clarinet, taking in the whole gallery, submerging the audience.
 
A bodiless treatise on narration, bored speakers, audience misbehaviour and police megaphones, but: is anybody listening?
 
Why won’t the idea of the particle or individual go away? Is the measurement problem in physics a documentary film issue? What can a human be without its crutches of life-time and measure?
