All invited, all welcome, ink brushes and paper provided.

LUCKY DRAGONS (LIVE)  talk/event
Mar 13, 2010 6:00pm
Lucky Dragons is a communal music experiment from Los Angeles based artists Fischbeck and Rara. Live performances involve participation between audience and band and aim to generate equal power-sharing situations. Created in the spirit of celebration Lucky Dragons is a communal music experiment relying on show goers to to compliment each other by linking themselves and the audience through sound to video, dance, and interactive technology.
 
Lucky Dragons will perform their ongoing project 'Making a Baby', a piece which involves sound production by creating human circuits through touch. Using cyber-psychedelic imagery and circuit jammed synths, Lucky Dragons challenge hierarchy and rhetoric and focus on communal music production and contact. Field recordings, feedback loops, and found sounds are mixed with thematic references to folk tradition and protest songs placing the emphasis on the experience of live music and togetherness. Lucky Dragons injects humanity into typically 'cold' technologies and uses these to inspire friendship, solidarity and discovery.

DEUX FOIS (1969) BY JACKIE RAYNAL  talk/event
Wednesday 17 March, 7pm
Screening and discussion with Marina Vishmidt and Nina Power.
 
Part of 'Visions, Divisions and Revisions: Political Film and Film Theory
in the 1970s and 80s', a programme of screenings and discussions organised
by Petra Bauer and Dan Kidner, taking place during the exhibition 'A
History of Irritated Material' at Raven Row, 25 February to 2 May 2010.
 
'Visions, Divisions and Revisions' revisits the idea of ‘film as a
political practice’, as it was practiced and theorised in the 1970s and
80s in the UK. Over the course of six events we will look at some of the
key debates that enlivened these years: issues around authorship; the role
of the audience; the relation of theory to practice; the use of
psychoanalysis in film; and different ideas of collectivity.
Events are free but booking is essential as space is limited. Please emailinfo@ravenrow.org to reserve a place.
