THE Thing
Wednesday 1 December – Islington Mill, Manchester Doors 8pm, £12 adv
Get tickets from Wegottickets and Ticketline, at Piccadilly Records and from the Venue
Promoter: MIE Music
“The thunderous Norwegian bass-and-drums partnership of Ingebrigt Håker Flaten and Paal Nilssen-Love uninhibitedly repainted the jazz rhythm-section landscape throughout the noughties, and it shows no signs of letting up. The pair were recently in action in the UK, in the eclectic Scandinavian band Atomic, but this is the first British visit in a decade for the Thing, the high-energy trio in which they’re joined by Swedish saxophonist and electronics practitioner Mats Gustafsson. Mojo magazine described the Thing as “tapping into rock’s most primal forces” as well as exploring free jazz and improv, and it’s right on the money with that.”

STUCKOMETER :: ASHTRAY NAVIGATIONS :: CHRIS CORSANO / MICK FLOWER

via facebook.com
Date: Sunday, 01 August 2010
Time: 08:00 - 10:00
Location: KLONDYKE, Burnage Range, Levenshulme, Manchester
“First STUCKOMETER show in a year or whatever - back on what you might call “home turf”. This promises to be one special night - with the incredible, mind blowing psychedelia, exemplary guitar technique and black humour of Phil Todd ( + _ ? ), inveterate vertabrate veteran of things suchlike as he is.
“Topping the bill is the now quite established, eye popping, mouth watering duo of MF and CC, the latter being one of the most exciting and capable percussionist / drumkitters one ever did see, the former from VIBRACATHEDRAL ORCH but all that was ages ago , with his elctric guitar / Indian banjo / what the fuck ever.
“STUCKO will play hard, no time, physical guitarfitti patterns in viscreal (SIC) airs - and with grace of a sorts. You can probably buy tickets for this on-line somewhere.”

Louise Woodcock Curated by Louise Woodcock.
Preview: 2 April
Open: 11-5pm Mon-Fri
Show ends: 23 April 2010Lost Language juxtaposes themes of loss, fear and disgust with visions of beauty, transcendence and spirituality. Cutting edge media and practice is juxtaposed with time old concepts and concerns. Lost Language raises questions about femininity and masculinity through material and concept: outmoded machines with crocheted acrylic, organic matter with video, digitalism with spirituality.
The inspiration for the Lost Language came from Julia Kristeva’s book Powers of Horror which investigates the roots of our sense of the ‘abject’, our fascination with it and what it means to us. The key theme in the book is around the concept of ambiguity. Ambiguity frightens us: when we think we know something or someone and we find we have been deceived or misguided we doubt our senses. If we become too afraid of ambiguity it can be stifling to creativity and to our fascination with the unknown in general. The rediscovery of horror and therefore ambiguity, according to Kristeva, brings us closer to our pre-historic selves who were not so bound to oppressive patriarchal systems.
Workshops and performances will be held on 17th and 18th April with artists including Matt Dalby, Graham Dunning and Gary Fisher.
