about

In 2015 I was invited to curate the Humber Calling section of Hull's Freedom festival 2015

Comprising six new commissions, Humber Calling featured work inspired by the festival's wider theme of Broadcast: Voices Of Freedom as well as in response to a new work of mine called Air Time. Artists submitting ideas for the commissions were asked to consider the nature of the voice as our instrument to convey ideas, ideology, emotions, experiences; and/or to explore how broadcasting can cross political, geographical and social boundaries.

Artists were asked to consider their commission in the context of a phone box – be that in, on, or in light of the phone box – marking and celebrating Hull’s iconic cream phone boxes, the legacy of the city’s independent communications infrastructure. These were then installed around the city for people to enjoy in the streets.

Marion (20th Anniversary Edition)
by Michael Fakesch

First released in 1999 this was a killer scratchy glitched out beat gem, and remains so today. The Boards of Canada remix is a gem too! Scanner
