Release: Now 10″ clear acetate EP

Posted on April 1, 2012 by

Now available is a new EP from Now, the band in which I play drums. It’s a clear acetate, lathe cut record (essentially a dubplate) featuring five new tracks. The record comes with a CD of the five tracks, as the quality on the record is quite lo-fi, plus a lovely insert.

Currently the release is only available direct from our gigs, but I may be able to arrange something if you’d like to buy one mail order.

Thanks to $500Limit for releasing the record; you can preview one of the tracks, Creatures, on the label’s site.

Posted on March 21, 2012 by

Just a quick note to say thanks to everyone who came along to my talk about the new show For Posterity at SoundFjord last week. Thanks too to Helen Frosi for the image above. There is an audio recording but I’m not sure whether to make it available yet as I haven’t listened through.

The exhibition runs on into April. More info here.

Artist’s talk at SoundFjord about new show, For Posterity.

Posted on March 15, 2012 by

This Saturday, 17th March, I’ll be giving an artist’s talk at SoundFjord in London about my practice and new exhibition at the gallery.

The exhibition, For Posterity, tells the story of my attempts to reunite a family with an audio journal they made to reel-to-reel tape, which I found at a car boot sale. I’ll be talking about the process I went through to find the family; the issues raised in the process including the legacy of archive and questions of anonymity; how the work links in with my wider art practice; my earlier work which has informed this installation; and future projects.

During the talk I’ll show audio and video and examples of previous work and take questions from attendees.

The event runs from 4pm to 7pm on Saturday 17th March, 2012, at  SoundFjord, Unit 3B – Studio 28 | 28 Lawrence Road | LONDON | N15 4ER. Please RSVP to info@soundfjord.org.uk.

There’s also a Facebook event page here.
