N30 is a massive, dynamic, immersive multi-channel presentation of front-line field recordings from the protest against the WTO in Seattle
A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
Jandek’s first ever live performance. Unannounced, the performance was a total surprise for everybody at the festival.

Equal parts spectacle, installation and performance, his set for us is a specially developed work, ‘turning’, which features an orchestra of multiple turntables, 4 projections and a collection of old, and, quite probably, misfiring analogue kit.
