Music is full of refracted brass and wind tones, distorted tape loops, dead silent air and the occasional piercing shard of sound.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
Three speakers play back pre-recorded sounds, Marc listens and responds: “What is played is the imperfect witness of what I listen to (or maybe better, how I listen).”
How do communities practice being one another’s means, addressing their material problems facing them replicating the state’s violent logic of who is disposable.
How do people living with disability see themselves in today’s sexualised culture? How do we imagine our crip sexual selves despite society wanting to reduce us to non-erotic bodies?
Cask-strength electrohypnol/ shroom damaged folk croonings by Lapsed Electronics empire builder responsible for recent Tremors blowouts.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
Repetitive, mesmerizing rhythmic workouts, to pieces of stark and rigorous introspection, where notes picked and slid in isolation, scatter like mercury around the listener.
