Glasgow. Free-playing quartet of bass/ cello/ voice from The Glasgow Improvisors Orchestra and Age Of Wire & String.
Two bottomless brunch writing workshops—with readings—speculating the relationship between space, infrastructure, technologies and sex.
Three days of discussions, performances, actions, dancing and food – continuing No Total’s ongoing contemplation of ways of being together and the ways Arika have been entangled in those, ever since Episode 4.
A workshop inviting participants to enact a series of scores that explore witnessing, testimony, grief and mourning, facilitated by Mezna and Sadia, and accompanied by Sakina Ali.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
Patented 60 cycle hums, static pops, and terse electron pinpricks mutated into perfect, post-techno grooves and synaesthesic video
Open-ended, paradoxical and performed investigations into: misunderstanding, language games, form saturated with sense, and consecutive matters…
Ecstatic, scalding and ludicrously heavy, nobody matches Incapacitants for live noise energy. One of the most exhilarating live acts in underground music.
Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.
Torrential, wrenching wordless wails, guttural screams and roars, a Haino solo vocal performance.
