counting backwards - new performance series

At last I can let you know about a new series of events in Manchester.

For a few weeks now Richard Barrett, Gary Fisher and myself have been working on a new series of text-sound-performance events called Counting Backwards.

Beginning Thursday 3 June 2010, Counting Backwards will take as its starting point contemporary text-sound practices that question semantics and received traditions, and emphasise performability.

Counting Backwards takes place at Fuel Cafe Bar in Withington on the first Thursday of alternate months. Entry is free. The flyer for our launch event is below.

The performers for the launch event are Mike Cannell, Holly Pester, and THF Drenching.
