Please note that this is a matinee show – doors will open at 2pm and the event will start shortly after.
Apologies in Advance (founded in 2016) is a platform for artists presenting work-in-progress performances. So far fourteen editions of the event have taken place at venues such as South London Gallery, IKLECTIK, Café OTO, V22 and most recently at De Player in Rotterdam.
Melbourne based tarab explores re-contextualised collected sounds and tactile gestures formed into dynamic, psycho-geographical compositions inspired by discarded things, found things, crawling around in the dirt, junk, the ground, rocks, dust, wind, walking aimlessly, scratchy things, decay and most if not all the things he hears and sees. More than simply documenting a given site, tarab is interested in a direct engagement with our surrounds, teasing out half narratives, visceral sensation, false leads and heightened awareness.
TARAB's compositional works have been published on labels including Naturestrip, nonlinear, 23five, Unfathomless, Aposiopese, Swarming, Cronica, Semperflorens and also his own sonicrubbish imprint formed in 2018.

Kate Carr is a London-based sound artist and researcher working across composition, performance and installation. Her practice explores field recording as both a creative method and a way of understanding relationships between people, environments and technologies. Through recording, listening, performance and the construction of instruments from discarded materials, she examines the ambiguities of recorded sound and the shifting boundaries between documentation, fiction and encounter.
Central to her work is an ongoing practice deploying recording protocols: score-like systems, actions and constraints that structure how recordings are gathered. Her work draws on the sound of public spaces, infrastructural vibrations and hybrid environments.
Carr performs internationally and runs the sound art label Flaming Pines. She is a member of the duos Rubbish Music (with Iain Chambers) and Quartz Sand (with Cath Roberts).
