Join us in the gallery for a listening party to celebrate this year’s summer broadcasts project in collaboration with Clyde Built Radio. Each of the commissioned artists will present a revised and shortened version of their original broadcasts on Clyde Built Radio.

Unfolding through June – October this year, summer broadcasts was a series of four sound commissions by Hannan Jones, Sgàire Wood, Lydia Davies and Yulia Carolin Kothe, four Glasgow-based early career interdisciplinary artists currently working with sound, poetry, broadcast, or music. Responding to the increase in the foregrounding and programming of transient methods of working and interdisciplinary art practice within a contemporary visual art context over the last few years, this new programme at David Dale Gallery seeks to continue to support these practices.

The commissioned works responded loosely to the theme of broadcast as a site for connection and reflection, and were supported with mentorship from local community radio station Clyde Built Radio. They were also broadcast on Clyde Built Radio, who are based just up the road from the gallery in the Barras Market and are all now available to listen on our website and Clyde Built Radio’s archive.

second sights and infrared sprites is a tapestry of short films that delves into spirituality, energy, and belief. Revealing connections between realms, present moments and the ethereal unknown. All films foreground an element of research, ritual or rhythm, be that submerged, unseen, felt or subconsciously known. These landscapes are explored both through direct narratives, subtle gestures, and are grounded by the sonic sphere.

Each film, an offering or glimpse into the past and connections spanning various spaces and temporalities. second sights and infrared sprites is a programme that leans into liberation, parallel possibilities or realities, illuminating the many compasses we can choose to follow. Each film will have an improvised sonic response by Simone Searles.

This event is held in collaboration with Glasgow Women's Library

un Magazine 17.1 RESIST involved Shamica and I in conversation, you can read ‘Speculation is the Vehicle’ in print and online.

The 2023 un Magazines are guest edited by Bahar Sayed and Gemma Weston guided by interrelated themes that suggested a directional attitude — to push against; to pull towards. It was a pleasure to be part of and to bring to life ways of thinking together through text. We exist alongside wonderful contributors whose words and insight I’ve really enjoyed getting to understand and think through too. They are Aisyah Aaqil Sumito & Mossy 333, Elyas Alavi, Hana Pera Aoake, Mayma Awaida, Timmah Ball, Andy Butler, Marguerite Carson, Sam Elkin, HEAVY DUTY, Marnie Badham & Kelly Hussey-Smith & Nina Mulhall, Joana Partyka, Leila el Rayes, Jack Augustine Irvine Mitchell & Eliki Reade, Emily Morel & Amy Stuart, Olga Svyatova, Rebecca Suares-Jury, Megan Tan, and Ane Tonga.

Blue Grey Haze is a sonic landscape that begins with a locked groove, serving as a rhythmic foundation that unfolds progressively and cyclically returns. It brings together new compositions, poems and research elements, field recordings, and collected audio materials that undergo deliberate sonic shifts, amplifying the sense of constellations within composition whilst sitting in a state of flux bound by the locked groove.
