UNSOUND

midnight future shock film season

This year's Unsound presents a wide array of installations and special projects, ranging from Michael Nyman's video and sound work, "Sublime", to the Placard Headphones Festival and Last.FM DJ sets. This program is designed to complement, expand upon and interact with the music events, workshops and panel discussions. The program also connects the festival and audiences more fully with the city itself, by incorporating different spaces into the event, including F.A.I.T Gallery and Cricoteca's nineteenth century power station, as well as our traditional partners, Klub RE and Pauza.
