Forty Part Motet - Janet Cardiff, A talismanic off

Forty Part Motet - Janet Cardiff, A talismanic offering, a 'girding of the loins' for the year. Please play nice 2022.🙏 starting the year off with something very special to me

Saw this in Tate Liverpool in 2003. I realise looking back that it was a pivotal piece.

It remains, 20 years later, one of my favourite works of art. It's heartachingly beautiful. ❤

“I am interested in how sound may physically construct a space in a sculptural way and how a viewer may choose a path through this physical yet virtual space” – Janet Cardiff

It's Salisbury Cathedral choir singing Thomas Tallis's 'Spem in Allium' - 1556.

You enter into the circle, it feels incredibly intimate, like standing next to a loved one as they speak. Each speaker is a different voice/person

I could bang on artiĺy about this for hours, but just listen.

Apologies for chopping end off, hoping Tate wont notice and tell me to take it off. Obv pls look up the whole thing on Tate/youtube if u can.

HUM REHOMING. If you know of other Hums being 'silenced' this Xmas please DM me.

I am offering this discreet service as part of my 'Bristol Hum Research Centre' project at the former Shoe Zone Shop, Broadwalk Shopping Centre, Knowle, Bristol.

Please have a heart, even the most annoying of hums deserves love. ❤

San Francisco, there's no such thing as silence, just ask John Cage. Well, except in space, where, they (who's they 😬) can't hear you scream, but I digress....

Project starts for proper in March 2022, I expect to be inundated.

FANTASTIC VOYAGE - A Microbial Day Trip. I took my Geobacter from their watery microbial fuel cells, to give them an well-earned Xmas outing. A bit of freedom from the hard labour of producing electrons.

I placed them on a sooty carbon carpet as i know they'd like that.

Hope they had a nice time. 😊

Havent got a microscope, thought if I stared really, really hard with the zoom on my phone, I might see if they're happy. No response. There's no pleasing some microbes.

Robotany project musings, cheesy sci-fi fictions and fun.

Energy Harvesting... So this may look a little yaw

Energy Harvesting... So this may look a little yawnsville, BUT, hold yer horses...

Energy harvesters work on the principle of collecting tiny bits of energy, that can be from various sources, solar, kinetic, thermal etc that would normally not be worth bothering with then storing it. Its very right-on eco stuff.

What's so exciting for me is that this is sort of a 'proof of concept' thing for my Robotany project. I'm aiming to ramp it up with several, to the point where the solar panel will be replaced by Microbial Fuel Cells and the light by a simple electronic instrument.

The aim of making a mud microbe powered synth for my Robotany project. Well, that's the aim..... in my head it's working a dream 😂

THE HUM DETECTIVES - coming to a shopping centre n

THE HUM DETECTIVES - coming to a shopping centre near you!

...... well if you live nr. Broadwalk Shopping Centre in Knowle, Bristol

Finishing prep to run my first family workshops since Mar 2020 this Saturday 😮. Based in my fabulous Shoe Zone shop courtesy @hyphastudios.

We're going to make the 'detector', see images for how it's made then going on a 'Hum Hunt' around the place.

AND, I have stickers for the kids (and adult kids) for each hum found! I love stickers!

Also a photo of some of the lovely coils I've been collecting that 'find the hum'. We are basically detecting EMF - the Electromagnetic Field.

Here is the leaflet printed up too. Project doesn't start proper till March as I'm doing the 'Robotany' one atm (aka the mud batteries)

But starting to scout around for people who may like to be interviewed..... know anyone who's heard it?
