Glasgow. Low-end drone guitarage army in praise of the open chord.
Sachiko’s very simple, pure sine tones and structures. Otomo on double pianos. Filament’s music isn’t composed and it isn’t improvised: it’s a hybrid of the two.
A slowed down single tracking shot along a corridor as workers at the Bath Iron Works, (Maine, USA) take their lunch break.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
Includes: a classic of innovative computer graphics, ex-pat Scot McLaren on form, a riotous psychedelic oil show with a Soft Machine accompaniment, subtle manipulation of data feedback, a colourful road movie and a reworking of a lost Paul Sharits film.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Quintessentially British, The Bohman Brothers’ music is a home-made and DIY conflux of some of the most virulent strains of experimental music.
A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
A chat, with examples (Zola, H. P. Lovecraft, Hammer Horror), about blackness and the sheer stupid thickness of what has no profundity whatsoever.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in a large multi chambered industrial ice house.
