DEEP SPACES - 25 February 2010
The opening event Deep Spaces presents a selection of audiovisual  
adventures in spaces defined by sound, light, smoke and lasers.  
Immerse yourself in Thomas Köner’s mesmerizing spatial sound  
tapestries, while his colleague, Jürgen Reble, takes you on a visual  
journey through the darker side of his alchemical chemograms. Haswell  
& Hecker will perform their radical UPIC Diffusion Session, an  
infinity of extreme sound and engulfing lasers. And Monolake and Tarik  
Barri will transport you through their spatial audiovisual universe.

The Expanded Space programme revisits the heyday of Expanded Cinema.

made with beautiful 16mm recordings of pelicans, from a 1950s nature  
documentary, and Greg Pope en Gert-Jan Prins will join forces to bring  
an homage to the 70s solid light film Line Describing A Cone by  
Anthony McCall.
