A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
Strickland Distribution and Ultra-red give a practical sound workshop bringing together walk participants to discuss the issues raised during the walk
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
A dismantled, performed film, where a narrator pieces together the sounds, images and storytelling of a documentary about Hurricane Katrina before a live audience.
A simple, gracefully bold set-up to allow Loïc to trace connections: of comments upon comments upon comments, of sounds next to sounds next to sounds.
