An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.

We asked Christoph to come and give a sort of informal talk, raising some of his ideas about sound and image, and playing/ showing a few examples.
A performance of Ueinzz’s new play. Each Ueinzz performance is a process of reinvention, between exhaustion and a fleeting vision: singular, collective, anonymous, plural, suspensive, intensive, unworking life.
Series of short sets by Acid Mothers Temple / Ruins offshoots Zubi Zuva X, Akaten & Zoffy.

Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an abandoned oil tanker on Hoy.
Durational group-mind drone and clatter: bamboo, electronics, the contents of your local ironmongers bin. A 3-hour set from this legendary Japanese improvisation group.
During Episode 9 we made this clip with Storyboard P at Kinning Park Complex. Video by Ash Reid.
Bruno’s liberated improvisational approach stretches beyond the lyrical, tough as nails rhythmic bursts and expressive, swinging attack of his drumming.
Work that focuses in on the static hiss and background noise of recording and pushes it to the fore.
Intriguing, underground, Berlin based musicians interested in the borders between music and theatre, language, the visual arts, politics.
