A simple hands on workshop with micro-radio theorist and pioneer Kogawa.
A beautifully crisp, slowly evolving duo for cello and projected images. Abstract but still figurative; change only noticeable after the fact.
A mixture of investigation groups, live performances, screenings and installations at DCA; the festival looked to strip back music, sound, film and moving image to their core ideas and explore them with artists and audiences.
In many ways, this Episode is our attempt to engage with Fred’s incredible writing: with his proposal that all black performance (culture, politics, sexuality, identity, and blackness itself) is improvisation.
A performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test. A game of chance. Constantly broadcasting live, actor Tam Dean Burn will leave Tramway at the start of INSTAL and walk away from it, in an ever increasing spiral, for a day. Then he’ll walk back.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Open community meeting to discuss some of the prevalent concerns impacting the ballroom community.
An audio and video investigation of gender cults, Catholicism, hauntings and nuns’ use of audio devices…
A panel exploring the radical potential of technologies through fugitivity and opacity: their ability to obscure, to make it impossible for us to be known, to render us untraceable by every arm of the state even under the all-consuming spectre of surveillance capital.
Whether drawing their own fractured, abstract narrative, or re-contextualising, chewing up and spitting out someone else’s, each of the films here take a dramatic arc as their starting point and throw it to the wind.
A dance party love letter to our community, expressing the joy of relation in the abstract and through actual physical proximity.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
