A performance for projectionist, musicians and audience, which plays with references to Oscar Levant and Gershwin: apparently a series of small doses of chaos.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Simple maths and stringent scored instructions move precise frequencies and clicks to create a dense, fluctuating environment of standing waves and physical sound.
Using violin and cello the duo map out a twilight sonic world that seems to tread the faultlines between improvisation and composition.

Cask-strength electrohypnol/ shroom damaged folk croonings by Lapsed Electronics empire builder responsible for recent Tremors blowouts.
