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.
A chat, with examples (Zola, H. P. Lovecraft, Hammer Horror), about blackness and the sheer stupid thickness of what has no profundity whatsoever.

For musical chameleon Richard Youngs both his creative and family life are focused in the room that many of us consider the centre piece of our lives.
A voice that can vault from an elegantly whispered insinuation to asphyxiated and murderous barks or squalls in a heartbeat.

Improvising violinist Angharad Davies performing with pianists Tisha Mukarji and Andrea Neumann.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A loud, buzzing stew of electrical light as noise and convulsive electric guitar squall.
A temporary archive and research space tracing the ways in which sound and audition move through everyday life.
60 minutes of hard ass minimal film, projected onto a weather balloon and accompanied by the inspired poetic rant of a visionary Frenchman.
