phill niblock: sound collages

Selected tracks and images from the exhibition "Working Photos" at Fridman Gallery, NYC (2019), specifically in reference to the black-and-white photo and video series "Light Patterns", here represented in a ten-page booklet by seven selected pictures and an exclusive retrospective story by the author related to memory and place. The tracks include aquatic elements, crickets, bells and other stories from the Greek islands, Belgium, the Danube and the Rhine Delta in a real-life experience that comes back to mind as a fluid sensation. This CD celebrates Phill Niblock's personal history, recounting episodes from his personal life, from the purchase of his first tape recorder in 1953, to his nocturnal activity as a DJ in the radio station during his military service, to the beginning of his musical career in 1968. A journey through magnetic tapes, through what today would be called "sound art", the transition to digital processing, up to this celebratory adventure developed at a distance together with Giovanni De Donà of Koo Editions during the pandemic isolation. This project is not only about the canonic digital edition in CD, digipak with booklet, of material selected by the artist from an art exhibition. Includes Leporello booklet that includes seven selected images from the exhibition "Working Photos"at Fridman Gallery NYC (2019) and a personal Phill Niblock story that celebrates his 60 years career; edition of 200 (numbered).
