Strange Attractor – until 30 April

Strange Attractor is a dynamic multi-dimensional series of collaborative ventures between five artists, Anthony Kelly, Danny McCarthy, Irene Murphy, Mick O’Shea and David Stalling probing new cross-disciplinary relationships to create non-verbal communication.

Over six months Strange Attractor has evolved a highly successful series of monthly four hour durational sound performances, within the gallery spaces inviting, international guests including David Toop & Mary Nunan, Stephen Vitiello, Alessandro Bosetti, Steve Roden and Rhodri Davies.

This collaboration now takes its form in a month long residency where the artists will work in the galleries, both as a group and as individuals creating components to form an evolving instrument that the listener/viewer can explore resulting in an experience that offers multiple points of entry for the audience.

Throughout the month scheduled and impromptu performances will occur with the artists inhabiting and changing the spaces around them. The residency is a platform for the exploration of ideas and process with open-ended outcomes thus creating sound and visual possibilities using sound installation, still and moving images, video documentation and performance.

Johnathan Deasy – Tuesday 19 April, 1-2pm

Robin Parmar – Wednesday 20 April, 1-2pm

Francis Heery – Thursday 21 April, 1-2pm
