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.
Music is full of refracted brass and wind tones, distorted tape loops, dead silent air and the occasional piercing shard of sound.
A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
Voguing, drag, clubbing, and the politics of communities making different performances of gender and sexuality visible.
An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
A dense materialist experience at the limits of contemporary computer music, drawing on Korean Shamanism and Communism; striving to create a strange new vibration to the world that seems to contain the seed of everything.
Where we join Nackt Insecten’s disembodied spectral howls and heavyweight locomotive drones about SPT’s Subway.
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
Investigate film as language, via the language of film reduced to the basic units of film and language. A film as text in which each frame is a single word.
Underlying radical transfeminism, as an urgent critique of binary essentialism and fixed identities, is the call for a new kind of thinking that can move between and integrate the truths of all lives in their transformations.
The Echo project is an installation as audio guide for a crowd. And at the same time it’s a private conversation: with you, as one of 20 people in a room, a sort of public intimacy.
