Horatio Oratorio a performance & installation by Aleksander Kolkowski & Federico Reuben 
This performance and installation event combines the earliest sound recording & reproduction technology - Edison phonographs, wax cylinder recordings and antique wind-up horn gramophones - with state of the art electronic sound processing. The sound is projected through a mixture of acoustic horns and loudspeakers and includes an installation of phonograph horns, tubing and turntables. 
Installation: Weds-Sat

Seldom Scene
Seldom Scene is an evening of film and music, bringing together talented, unsung musicians and long neglected, educational cine films, once a staple of school assembly halls up and down the country. The films will be shown mute; their cold, authoritative narration replaced by captivating, ethereal themes specially composed for these screenings. These are bona fide films, projected on the night from vintage prints; not a DVD, QuickTime or video tape in sight. All compositions will be performed live alongside these flickering images. The subjects covered tonight will be geography, wildlife and geology. Questions will not be asked at the end.

Friday 10:30pm (by the smoking door)
