For this workshop we are thinking a lot about water, the sound and the shapes and the changing seasons, liquidity and mess. We would like to offer a slow workshop, starting with a period of stillness and listening, moving into body energy and playing with water instruments that were made during our ceramics residency in Lesmurdie, while spending time at Jerrabinyan (Lesmurdie falls). This workshop will include some opt-in-or-out yin yoga. We will have comfortable floor or chair options for you, inside an installation of soft, sculptural mess. Our beautiful friend Yoko Kaga will feed you all (vg, gf) . […]

Drop in and create with Eucalyptus in the studio whilst listening […]

Simon Charles and John Kinsella have collaborated on their work, Visceral Fragments, since late 2022. Over many months, these artists exchanged poetry, sound recordings, and interpretations of each’s work. This culminated in a premiere performance at Audible Edge festival, described by Izzy French in Magazine 600 as ’mythical’, and ‘enthralling’. Focusing on York’s Suspension Bridge as a central theme, Visceral Fragments is a place-based and anti-colonial work. Field recordings transduced through air, water, and the bridge itself underpin the sonic language of the work. Kinsella’s text traces a poetics from in-the-world signifiers to themes of environmental destruction and survival. Ticketing […]

Audio-visual duo Black Zenith (Darren Moore and Brian O'Reilly - Singapore) investigate the intersecting points between electronic music, improvisation and abstract moving images. Integral to their work is the use of analogue modular synthesisers that generate live visuals through the transformation of audio signals into images. They are joined by Lindsay Vickery and Stuart James in a program of works fusing South Indian Konnokol rhythmic techniques, improvisation, alternative music controllers and the symbiotic relationship between sound and image.
