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.
What would a world and an ethics look like free from the destructive consequences of the Western mind?
Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.
Can we use sound, repetition and difference to personally and collectively engage with space, time and labour?
Haunted by the archive of the New Cross Fire, Jay Bernard presents a film and poetry reading that undertakes a queer exploration of black British history, reconstructed from archives and apparent debris.
A performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test. A game of chance. Constantly broadcasting live, actor Tam Dean Burn will leave Tramway at the start of INSTAL and walk away from it, in an ever increasing spiral, for a day. Then he’ll walk back.
Koji Asano, Japanese composer and sound-artist performing slow groaning burbling tones, moaning echoes and drones.
Has neoliberal capitalism locked down social experience? Are our seemingly subjective desires, our identities, pre-packaged by dominating social structures?
Improvising violinist Angharad Davies performing with pianists Tisha Mukarji and Andrea Neumann.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.
