The series aims to bring together performers with diverse practices and traditions to create one-off performances and for each person to fully enjoy these things without warning and for no reason.
Katie Gerardine O’Neill is a multidisciplinary artist from Dublin, Ireland. O’Neill is known for her experimental sound art and music, film work, performance art, painting, and photography. O’Neill is a socially engaged artist who was a photographer on the X-ile Project, a media campaign influential in repealing the 8th. O’Neill’s work often embraces the marriage of analogue and niche mediums such as cassette tape, reel to reel, and vinyl players, and emerging technologies such as AI, robotics, and apps. O’Neill has a keen interest in performance art, theatre, literature, and activism, all which form aspects of her immersive live performances. She has recently been commissioned by New Music Dublin, EVA International, and Open Ear. O’Neill recently performed a live score to one of her 8mm films at Phase Studios.
IRELAND are a drums-and-bass 2 piece improvisation group who are heavily influenced by the metal and free jazz music genres. The group morphs and splices the traditional riff to create long form improvisations drowned in 80s metal distortion pedals and riddled with very fast drumming. Sometimes they have guests. Can be a bit loud at times.
