Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
Ecstatic, scalding and ludicrously heavy, nobody matches Incapacitants for live noise energy. One of the most exhilarating live acts in underground music.
Transfeminist, communist, revolutionary poetry that refuses to flinch. Nat Raha presents new work in the nine.
A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
A performance by Storyboard P – one of the greatest Afrofuturist dancers on the planet.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Laser beam sine tones used to draw delicate, abstract patterns by vibrating charcoal, placed atop of a great strip of paper running through the gallery; beautiful, fragile sound-created autonomous drawing.
A talk entitled ‘The Conquest of the Universe’: which delves into the connections between the underground filmmakers and musicians in New York in the early 1960s
Edinburgh. Nigh-inaudible improv jams with disabled instruments from the makers of Giant Tank and Pizza Boy Delivery.
