Avant-wrongdoers Blood Stereo performing in Garthamlock the town spawned them.

Merzbow takes the junk of sound and transforms it into blistering noise assaults with an incredible spectrum and impact.
A performative survey of listening, as we managed to find it being used as a tool in different practices, disciplines and communities in North America (music, poetry, film, philosophy, activism…).
A system in which film is projected onto copper strips, captured again and then re-projected as video, somehow transforming the original imagery into molasses-slow, molten and incredibly tactile flickers of colour and light.
Pitching Fahey inspired, eastern-infused folk vibrations, sad elliptical drones and oracle chants into one kaleidoscopic sound.
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
An improvised film about our worlds at the brink, on the edge, in front of a crisis. To stand on the side of life, by seeing the resistance to genocide in Palestine as a turning point to overcome.
A day of presentations and discussions on the theme of audio visual perception in the context of experimental music, film and art.
