Walks…. www.arika.org.uk www.tramway.org www.thearches.co.uk Co-produced by Arika & Tramway In association with the Arches INTRODUCTION We do INSTAL. INSTAL's been going for 10 years. It's one of Europe's leading festivals of risk taking and experimentation in sound as it meets performance and art: unexpected, unbelievable gigs, events & experiences. INSTAL is changing. It's moving to The Tramway this November. In the mean time, we're doing UNINSTAL. It's a kind of taster. A preview. Like INSTAL, but maybe riskier. A set of FREE events that test out radical ideas with leading local and international artists: experimental musicians/ writers/ philosophers/ filmmakers/ organisers/ poets. A series of multi-part experiments, about certain ideas we'd like to know more about. Still like a gig, but also like something else. Seven events (intense performances and gigs, revelatory films, performed installations, and the like): each a kind of non-closed circle; open-ended, unresolved and incomplete. A collection that doesn't add up, but always returns to sound, music and listening. Come. And help us figure out where we might go next… Follow us http://www.facebook.com/00arika00 http://www.twitter.com/00arika00
