Are
The fourth in Christof Migone's series of twelve annual 12-hour events taking place on 12th December from 5pm to 5am the next day. Each year the event moves through each word of the phrase 'You and I Are Water Earth Fire Air of Life and Death‘ and a group of international artists activate the word of the year in myriad ways. Streamed live on YouTube.
In 2023, the word was Are and the focus was on plurals: multiplicities leading to infinities, polymorphs and polyglots, surrounded sounds, layers upon layers, etceteras upon etceteras. This edition included a subtitle: (Sommes Sonnes) — which translates from the French to 'are sounded'. Myriam Lambert and Alexandre St-Onge and Christof Migone curated the project.

Elemental Foley
This environmental audio stream is broadcasting live from the 'End of the World' glacier in Northern Italy's Stelvio National Park. The solar-powered listening station is continuously transmitting since July 2025 from ca. 2.700 metres above sea level in the Italian Alps. Throughout the month of August we will tune in daily to the glacier's cyclical sonic material life, allowing us to witness meltwater rhythms, sediment flows, avalanches, landslides, animal life and the seasonal impacts of weather and tourism entering the microphones, in real time. Elemental Foley by Lia Mazzari will be on show as a solo exhibition at Microscope Gallery in Dalston, London from 10 - 26 September 2026.
12:10pm - 1:00pm
Children of the Sun
Children of the Sun by Anna Friz. A Martian returns to damaged planet Earth, encountering industrialised and wild lands in a process of metamorphosis. Children of the Sun combines acoustic field recordings and electro-magnetic signals from various part of the spectrum recorded on the Salar de Atacama, northern Chile, from 2017-2024, together with two-way radio communications of mining workers and recontextualised NASA Apollo mission communications, specialised electronic instruments and voice in order to bring documentary sounds into the realm of science fiction, and to listen with the industrial desert and follow some of the many fields of influence at work. Children of the Sun is part of a larger suite of audio and audiovisual works entitled 'We Build Ruins' based on intensive fieldwork in the Atacama Desert undertaken by Anna Friz with collaborator Rodrigo Ríos Zunino since 2017.
The Salar de Atacama, once at the bottom of a sea, is now one of the driest places on Earth. Located in the high-altitude desert in the Andes, the salt flats contain rare geologic and organic systems, but vast exploitative mining operations (currently lithium and nearby copper mining) continue to radically reshape the land for eons to come. Intense UV solar radiation due to the high altitude and the specific geological formations serve as ready analogues for off-planet conditions; thus this area has been a training ground for off-planet robotic probes and for developing mining techniques that may be applied on Mars or elsewhere. Meanwhile Earth’s ecology is becoming a little more like Mars every day.
1:00pm - 4:00pm
Vague Wanderings: Music on the Marshes
Vague Wanderings is a bi-monthly collaborative live show from the 24-26 cohort of School of the Damned, exploring imagined spaces, temporary autonomous zones, collecting field recordings and the fertile topsoil of vague terrains.

Featuring performances from YUNA, Li Song & Titus Barker (duo), Yewen Jin, Conal Blake, Regan Bowering & David Sappa (trio), Li Yilei, Pentu, and interviews conducted by Edward Sanderson.

Fragments From the No-TAV Struggle
An audio work by Davide Tidoni. Fragments From the No-TAV Struggle (2023) consists of a series of stories, personal reflections and direct experiences from the No-TAV movement, an Italian grassroots movement that has opposed the construction of the second high-speed train line between Turin and Lyon since the early 2000s. Through the voices of various people involved in the movement, the work brings together some of the central themes of the No TAV struggle, including: the technical flaws and deficiencies of the high-speed project; the relationship between struggle, community and personal growth; and the military defence plan put in place to protect the TAV construction sites.
Davide Tidoni is an artist and researcher interested in the relational dimension of listening, and in the physical experience of sound. He works with live performance, intervention, audio recording, video and guided listening, and published a sound ethnography on the ultras group BRESCIA 1911.

The Sentence
The Sentence by Alistair Fruish, read by Daniel Copeland, is a 47 thousand word single unpunctuated sentence entirely made up of monosyllables. It concerns a prisoner who is given a drug which slows down time. For more information visit fruishon.co.uk.
"The Sentence is the sort of cultural bar raising that we so desperately need right now.” – John Higgs
“This is the best thing I’ve ever heard about prison and UK general insanity...” – Carl Cattermole (The Prison Survival Guide)
"A bold, bar-rattling gem." – Alan Moore

ZYX Inside Your Eyes

Farewell Tour
Farewell Tour is an ambient psychrock band by Joe Wilson and Chanelle Collier. The project developed as a cathartic response to grief. Centred on themes of love and death, and their music incorporates field recordings, guitars and vocals. The band's entire existence is a continuous drawn-out goodbye, bringing a unique urgency and finality to every performance and recording. It is also an advocacy project that brings conversations and awareness to death literacy, and patient rights. “An epic love story of a band where every song is their last.“ Visit joewilson.space.
