Where’s Our Battle’ by Juneau Brothers. One of five tracks from’The Forward Staute in Flames’. The track is inspired by the removal of the JKF mosaic from the St Chads roundabout and the plan to relocate it in the paving of a new plaza. Played on home made audio trigger instruments. Sound samples include ebow guitar, triggered in Audiomulch. Soundreactive visuals in VVVV.
Images from the Shell Grotto installation of ‘Formosa’ - a new piece commissioned by Crate, Margate, curated by Matthew De Pulford, part of Bad Translation. The piece consisted of sound-reactive visuals triggered by computer data cassettes pulled from Commodore Datasettes by electric motors. The piece drew on the history of séances held at the grotto, the use of technology to record the ‘dead’ through Electronic Voice Phenomenon, and the redundancy of obsolete computer systems and cassette data storage.

We are working on a project for the Shell Grotto, Margate, curated by Matthew de Pulford for Crate, Margate as part of ‘Bad Translation’. We will be creating a one-off live event in the grotto on the 13th Nov 2009. We are currently building sound-reactive visuals which are influenced by the mystery of the symbols which decorate the walls of the grotto, the history of seances in the grotto and the use of electronic devices as a means of recording the dead.
