The first event I'm putting on as part of my Music Events Management course.
Weird trippy films accompanied by electronic/sonic mayhem and a man who straps flashing lights to his body and dances to the music!
Would be great to see some of you Ninjas there!

The CABINET of Dr. CALIGARI.
This 1919 film by Robert Wiene sees a fairground hypnotist control a somnambulist, who has been sleeping for twenty-three years, to commit murders, dressed in a black stocking with a ghostly white face. In this performance the role of the fairground hypnotist is brought out of the screen into the theatre. With sensors attached to his body he controls the somnambulists vision and sound through his physical movements and gestures..

SEVEN SEALS [1927/2007]
Seven Seals is an abstract, cinematic journey from the depths of the ocean to the shore. This unique performance will feature string players, a percussionist, piano, keyboards and samplers, and aims to visually demonstrate the very tight relationship between sound and image in non-spoken film. www.clubneurotica.com
PUTSCH Presents Häxan [1922]
A dark and ominous mix of breakbeat styles cut-up to accompany the images. Putsch are an audio-visual collective performing live manipulation of sound and image with an eclectic variety of instruments and controllers. For this show they will be performing a live triptych remix of the silent classic. Haxan is a macabre Danish masterpiece that was censored, banned and condemned upon release, but is now regarded as a classic of documentary cinema.
