Live Music

Trestle Records presents: Morviscous, Orion Arm and Tout

Thursday 29 March / 6.45pm, first performance 7.15pm / Free

Trestle records is a record label dedicated to putting out new instrumental music started by four friends in east London during 2011. Ranging from electronic to classical, pop to musique concrete supporting and distributing all manner of contemporary instrumental music is its principle.

Morviscous

Often described as progressive or experimental rock, the only real constant thread in Morviscous's music is the attempt to create something that questions where it has come from and where it is going.

Orion Arm

Orion Arm is a two piece spaz-jazz-prog-math band based in Milton Keynes.

Tout

London based guitar three piece. Making highly atmospheric instrumentals the interweaving guitars are accompanied by drums and viola in the creation of cinematic soundscapes. Suggestive of open terrain and movement through far flung landscapes the country-tinged melodies combine folk-country inflection with post-rock structuring.

sucking on words, Kenneth Goldsmith

Thursday 1 March / 6.30pm / Free

"If every word spoken in New York City daily were somehow to materialise as a snowflake, each day there would be a blizzard."The words of Kenneth Goldsmith, described by Juliana Spahr as 'the world's leading conceptual poet', and by himself as 'the most boring writer that has ever lived'. His ideas have been brought to the screen by artist and director Simon Morris.sucking on words introduces 8000 of those daily words - a flurry of excitement as the climates of conflict and admiration come together around Goldsmith's pioneering conceptual poetics. Shot on location in Manhattan, 'sucking on words' features interviews with the leading critics and poets Bruce Andrews, Barbara Cole, and Robert Fitterman.

The lively conversations featured in the film are an ideal introduction to Goldsmith's witty and provocative works, already regarded as hallmarks of 21st century literature.
