Freeform Super 8mm documentation of Saturday at Instal 06 by filmmaker Matt Hulse.
INSTAL’s third outing saw performances by AMM, Cosmos (Sachiko M & Ami Yoshida), Voreboms, Vibracathedral Orchestra with Matthew Bower and John Godbert, Paragon Ensemble, Merzbow and Ryoji Ikeda.
Merzbow takes the junk of sound and transforms it into blistering noise assaults with an incredible spectrum and impact.
Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
A film installation as both allegory and investigation of The Rockridge Institute and their research into ‘framing’ and the use of metaphor within political discourse.
Two figureheads of the minimalist electronica pulse, Ikeda and Nicolai have been responsible for some of the most innovative and ground-breaking music of the last decade, redefining experimental electronica.
Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
A short chat about what we (Arika) might be trying to do with our program for the Biennial.
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
Sound and image slipping out of synch and into discord, the programme includes (in London at least) a very special version of Hollis Frampton’s masterful (nostalgia) with a live narration by Michael Snow.
Join Sex Workers For Decrim for a sex worker only collective art workshop and be part of creating a massive visual timeline of sex worker resistance in Scotland.
ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
