Roberta Gigante is een Italiaanse kunstenaar (°1986) die woont en werkt in Brussel. In haar werk onderzoekt ze de relaties tussen publieke ruimte, beeld en geluid. Als bijdrage aan Electrified 02 | Hacking Public Space, brengt ze de performance OrganOOn op een ongewone plaats: een uitgestrekt bedrijventerrein in de Gentse haven waar twaalf gigantische metalen buizen liggen. Ze hebben elk – naargelang de dikte, diameter en lengte – een eigen resonantiefrequentie, welke worden geregistreerd en ingezet als grondtonen binnen een in situ geluidsinstallatie . De buizen – het lijken wel losse orgelpijpen – worden zo tot één instrument versmolten. Hoe dit ongewoon orgelconcert uiteindelijk zal klinken, bepaalt de wind… Welkom op dit uniek evenement!

The London Nobody Knows
£5 for everyone
A perennial ICA favourite, this vintage documentary joins on-screen guide James Mason for a tour of London back in the 1960s, with the dapper actor leading us up, in and around the capital’s hidden (and now largely long-gone) basements, alleys, nooks and crannies.

DAY OF THE DOC
An impressive documentary combines a strong idea and an original starting point with a professional execution . It is easy enough to come up with an idea, but how do you go about putting together a budget? Who can you talk to about subsidies? Which type of project is most likely to be subsidized? How do you find a TV channel willing to coproduce your documentary? What about international coproductions? And which other financial possibilities are there, nationally and internationally?
The Day of the Doc is your chance to get all those questions answered. The Flemish Audiovisual Fund, MEDIA and the European Documentary Network will be giving practice oriented lectures. Afterwards, all participants can join a round of “speed dating” in which they can have a one-on-one with subsidizing institutions as well as national and international producers. Throughout the day, the DOCVILLE archives are available for browsing. We close off our day with a unique screening of the film “Capturing Reality: the Art of Documentary”
PRAKTICAL
- Date: May 7, 2010, 10u30 AM – 5 PM
- Address: Art Centre STUK, Naamsestraat 96, 3000 Leuven

| BLURT Ted Milton’s Texte sind mindestens so dadaistisch wie sein Saxophon-Spiel. Mal gehaucht, mal geschrieen jagt er dem Zuhörer ein dickes, verunsicherndes Pfund um die Ohren. Schlagzeug und Gitarre bilden den Boden, auf dem sich Ted Milton so entfalten kann. Milton’s Dada-Avantgarde-Jazz und die zerrissene hypnotische No Wave-Hymnen waren stilbilden für verschieden Künstler und Bands Anfang der 80er Jahre. Bei BLURT gesellt sich noch ein gewisser Minimalismus dazu, der aus trashig hypnotisches Schlagzeug, monotone Gitarrenlicks und tribalmäßige, mäandernde Predigen besteht. Nur selten war Musik so direkt und unmittelbar und dabei so kontrolliert energetisch wie bei der Band um den ehemaligen Puppenspielers Ted Milton. |

I Went To The House But Did Not Enter is a staged concert in three tableaux, composed by Heiner Goebbels and magnificiently performed by the world-famous Hilliard Ensemble.The tableaux are dedicated to four key twentieth-century literary texts by T.S. Eliot, Maurice Blanchot, Franz Kafka and Samuel Beckett. Although markedly different, each text focuses on a fragmented and anonymous protagonist, an anti-hero who embarks on a journey to everywhere and nowhere. Through imaginative staging and a wonderfully restrained vocal presence that is strikingly different from the performance style often found on the operatic stage, the four singers bring each story vividly to life. Performed in EnglishPerformance time: 19:45 Running time: 105mins / no interval Latecomers will not be admitted Concept, music and direction Heiner Goebbels Music by Heiner Goebbels Produced by Théâtre Vidy-Lausanne (Switzerland ) Co-produced by Edinburgh International Festival 2008 ( UK); schauspielfrankfurt (Germany); Teatro Comunale di Bolzano / Stadttheater Bozen (Italy); Grand Théâtre de Luxembourg (Luxemburg); Musica, festival international des musiques d’aujourd’hui de Strasbourg (France) Commissioned by Carolina Performing Arts at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (USA); Hopkins Center, Dartmouth College, Hanover (USA) With the support of Pro Helvetia Swiss Arts Council barbicanbite10 would like to thank the Swiss Cultural Fund in Britain and the Goethe-Institut London for their support I Went To The House But Did Not Enter premiered at the Edinburgh International Festival in 2008 |
