Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
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.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
An immersive environment where sound is looped through oscillators, radio, guitar pick-ups and video amps to create dense strobing images and colours

An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
Every aspect of every film is always about more than just film. Or, as Godard said: a tracking shot is a moral issue. A cross between a festival, magazine and discussion about experimental artists’ films.
