The day is divided into music, spoken word, performance, installation and moving image. Within each section there is further variety - music spans from analogue synths through rap to improvised solo guitar. My highlight will probably be The Mathletics Team, who not only have a funny name but sing about comics. Beyond that, I can't take it all in - like the best festivals, it needs to be experienced.

Here's the line up...
Music
Analogue Anonymous: A group of like-minded musicians who have a passion for analogue equipment. For this performance they will be utilizing series of synths, drum machines and sequencers.
Caries: Guitars and loops with a humble Tape.
Female Band: An experimental gothic pop performance consisting of collected sounds recorded sounds - edited and performed in a live context.

Hausfrau: Synth cabaret versions of 60s and 70s rock/pop sounds, featuring members of Aggi Doom and Organs of Love.

Leafwrist : Ambient folk-influenced experimental electronics by newly re-located Australian. Featuring visual projections.
Louie (Hector Bizerk): Razor-sharp and witty rap on Glasgow-life and politics from Hector Bizerk's frontman.
The Mathletics Team: An 8-piece band who play under superhero pseudonyms and play pop rock songs about comic books, fantasy and general geeky subculture.
Mount Analogue: A performance of Sonic Deprivation, a loud, immersive piece of ambient music in complete darkness.
Saint Max and the Fanatics: Offbeat, poetic and energetic 'ADHD-pop' outfit, fresh from a recording their debut EP at Green Door Studios.
Star Voyage: Quasi-improvised Intergalatic space-funk, featuring a real-life midi guitar. Plus live visuals by James William Farlam.
Thomas Burmby: Found sound files scoured from laptops; cut, moved around and re-assembled into the skeleton of a piece of music.
Yoko Ono's Coma: Groovey no-wave, Indie-pop, noise and found sounds, featuring members of Charles of the Ritz, Asian Babes and The Cosmic Dead (among others).
Vox Gradus: Loose, droney tracks from a waterlogged basement, skittering rhythms and broken pieces all furious with the future / lack of. With visuals!
Spoken Word
Emerge 'n' See : A two part performance between both venues involving a disjunction between audio and visual gestures. We will look at the aesthetics/ontology of emerging and the possibility of producing the 'new'.
Performance
Pester and Rossi (Nadia Rossi and Ruby Pester): A performance taking place in the street between The Art School and Nice N Sleazy, followed by a finale performance inside one of the venues.
Amy Pickles, Ailsa MacKenzie and Justyna Ataman, Easy as 1-2-3: Three performers run back and forth between two venues carrying props and costumes, attempting to create a stage in each of the windows.
Michelle Hannah: A performance based around the dystopian lounge singer with use of fragmentation and repetitive appropriation of a chosen pop song. Designed to engage, entice and repulse equally in artifice.
Installation
Ioanna Faga: Interactive collage on how we are destroyed without democracy. Put traits on the face and change it completely.
Bradley Davies and Nick Thomas: 2013 is the 82nd anniversary of the invention of the radio-telescope. Their installed radio-telescope will being a dash of the cosmos to Sauchiehall Street through audio and visualisations.
Marianne Wilson: Video installation using projection mapping techniques incorporating 3D reflective and transparent surfaces. The piece will aim to merge contemporary media with older, more scientific forms of technology. A push pull relationship with intrusive and immersive technology.
Susannah Stark and Katy Shambles: A cryptic light installation and interactive DJ set. The audience will be able to decode and record words and messages from the bulbs using printed charts - these words will then influence the DJ.
Kim Walker: A piece exploring language, the responses of two people to one another, and the associations their words have to each others words. The two have come together for a period of time knowing that they must part again.
Moving Image
Jack Saunders: A new video work addressing the hierarchy of perishable produce. Ideas of consumption are explored alongside those of consumer hypocrisy.
Mario Soustiel and Thomai Pnevmonidou: Moving image Collage on an infinite loop of a dancing couple dancing on the edge of a cliff
Alice Bradshaw : Projections investigating the processes involving the manipulation of everyday objects and materials. Mass-produced, anonymous objects are often rendered dysfunctional caricatures of themselves, addressing concepts of purpose and futility.
