Robin Hayward – exploring the micro-sounds of a tuba, filling slowly with sand.
60 cycle hums, jagged static cracklings, and clipped electron pinpricks, mutating them into sublime, post-techno grooves
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
Fernando thinks that when maths is deep, it should be simple and able to be explained by hand gestures. By embodying ideas, we’re able to more clearly think about their cultural implications.
