BIGMAG. #4 TESSERA, double 12″ and script
Double 12″ vinyl with image cards in between. A truly fat object. Needs to be recronstructed for playing on a record player.
The audiopieces are from the archive of the Audible Picture Show (audio for darkened cinema).
Matt Hulse curated a specific tracklist for this vinyl release.
appearing: John Parr , Mr Clay, Zoe Irvine, Danielle Simpson, Matt Hulse, Joost van Veen, Phil Newcombe, Christine Olejniczak, Peter Fengler and Helena Gough.
This comes along with a never filmed nor published script ‘Im Schoss der Macht’ by Gabor Altorjay.
Synopsis: “In the spring of 1931 in Berlin, the future star director of the Nazis Leni Riefenstahl meets Béla Balázs, the communist film theorist and successful screenwriter. He writes the screenplay for her first film, ‘The Blue Light’, travels up in the mountains with her and directs the scenes in which she is the female lead. An intimate relationship grows between two legendary and inspiring figures in film history, historically incongruent and also a baffling mystery. Our film will solve this mystery.”
The focus of this BIGMAG.#4 release, entitled ‘TESSERA’ is the visualisation of an image/story/abstraction by using an other medium than the image itself. In this it concentrates at film as a medium. The film is nevertheless not used as such but is made up by sceance. By using audio and text in the release, by spoken word, audiopieces and performance in the live presentation. Something is missing, that does recall. The phantom of collective experience is activated for completion of the puzzle.

Beautiful double 8-inch lathecut from AA records project Toxoplasmosis.

10″ Mark Bain TWOTOWERS
For SOUND as a WEAPON, Mark Bain delivered two tracks for the ‘jubilee’ of the twintower collapse.As a reversal archisonic fact the work transcribes theseismic record directly to sound
the action of the twin towers collapsing as itimpacted the earth and geologically recorded
many miles away from ground zero. The sound of collapse as it relates to newstyles of modern
weaponry and warfare, perhaps an inversion of sorts.
10″ Goodiepal
The Arhus Warrior, also known as Goodiepal or Goodiepal van den Dobbelsteen, is still fighting his war on stupidity in modern computer music and media arts. For SOUND as a WEAPON he gave us some information on possible tactics how to bring the Arhus warrior down. Pretty autobiographic information. All items are diagonal split up covers from a friends heritage, beautifully arranged by Paul Erik and inscripted by the Warrior himself. Limited amount of 10 pieces.
Unfotunately the ddv and erik van lieshout 10″s mentioned previously already got sold during the art fair!
