Soda_Jerk | The Carousel

Cinema films death at work. By embalming traces of the living, film functions as a form of mummification as well as a site where the dead are incessantly resurrected through the life-giving motion of the film projector. The Carousel is a video performance lecture that pries open the crypt of cinema’s undead.

Sumugan Sivanesan | The Digger You Love To Hate

A year ago Sumugan presented a paper on the ANZAC myth at a
conference on postcolonial letters and film in Turkey. Revisiting the
topic in Sydney during the lead up to the centenary of Gallipoli, Sumugan will
explore a constellation of thoughts regarding race,
death, class, war and diggers in Australian culture, in this ANZAC Day special performance lecture “The Digger You Love To Hate”.

A game of 2up will follow the lecture.

Melbourne’s Galapagoose launches his new album ‘Commitments’ – with Cliques (48/4 and Henson) and Guerre in support.

Algorithmic Improvisor: Performance Night

The Sydney algorithmic improviser hack-together will take place over 3 days in April and will bring together scientists, artists and other enthusiasts in pursuit of the creation of pieces of music-playing software that exhibit modest but noticeable forms of autonomy and musical capability when paired up with human improvising musicians. The hack-together will provide an opportunity to collaborate and explore technologies, techniques and critical issues of musical autonomy. The gathering will culminate in a performance on April 21st showcasing systems produced prior to and during the workshop. The performance will include the following musicians: Peter Hollo (cello), Evan Dorian (drumkit), Ben Carey (saxophone) and Roger Dean (keyboard).

Weather Festival

The idea of weather festival has always been to suggest the celestial. None of the works explicitly probe warm fronts or hurricanes, they examine the process of drawing lines from chosen points for the sake of representation.

In the 4 nights spanning April 9-12, a program of work is assembled, from performance installation to improvised performance. Entry is by donation of a cake.

Nick Keys | Becoming otherwise occupied

Becoming otherwise occupied is a performance lecture by Nick Keys. Developed for Serial Space’s Performance Lecture project and presented by Serial Space in association with Free School and Occupy Sydney.
