Opening of monitor

Performance: test pattern [live set] 
by Ryoji Ikeda – UK Première
Produced by Forma

test pattern [live set], the latest audiovisual work in Ikeda's datamatics series, presents intense flickering black and white imagery, which floats and convulses in darkness to a stark and powerful, highly synchronised soundtrack. Ultra fast moving images provide a performance test for the audio and visual devices, as well as a response test for the audience's perceptions.

Note: The work contains strobe and high levels of sound.

Tickets free, limited capacity.
