Lee Gamble: Empty Middle Seat a lecture on absence and remanence through the lens of several themes you can find spanning his work.
Degrading Archives The archive isn’t just a record of the past. It’s a living material. The archive is memory and memory is a kind of fiction, an ongoing dialogue between creation, deterioration, and renewal.
Rave Hallucinations Do I haunt my own music? My time spent in a rave induced involuntary musical imagery, was that my music? Are we stuck in time-loops? And was brit-pop really a psyop?
The Disembodied Voice The voice with no body is psychedelic. Synthetic voices are everywhere. They’re not supernatural, they’re not ghosts, they’re not human, they play-act as human. These voices don’t have a past, they weren’t born, they have never lived and they won’t die.
Reality Capture and Simulation From Will Smith eating spaghetti to Loab in AI Zombieland, six fingered hands were once everywhere. October 2014 and Jesus has appeared on a piece of toast in the north of England.
Noise!! is the absence of Music UFO’s and dead people always appear in grain and static so smash your art up!
