===============================



FIS

- From Patterns To Details (NZ)



Fis performs his new album "From Patterns To Details"; in total darkness in an old morgue. The album sees Fis use reverb and crescendo to conflate everything into one – overlapping the warped and distorted strings of ‘Root Collars’ or embellishing the drones of ‘Heart Wash’ with the sounds of shards colliding in the wind. Fis composes physical, spirited, exploratory electronic music inspired in part by his work as a permaculture designer. His latest album (released via Bristol-based label Subtext on September 16th) sees continuity between environment and individual, external bodies and the internal emotional landscapes that music can communicate beyond the affordances of language."



FK Alexander

- Translucent Void (SC)



FK Alexander is Scotland's Premier Destructivist, whose new work Translucent Void brings together ice, an axe and a strobe light. The work forms part of on-going investigative experiments into technological rebellion, the decline of western civilisation, new animal ways and survival. Alexander takes to a space, she owns and transforms it, and the effect is hypnotic. The Glasgow-based artist often takes on huge themes, exploring the nature of the self and the elemental spaces we inhabit. Creation and destruction loom large in her work process, as well as the influence of JG Ballard's modernist novels, and their vision of industrialisation’s slow decay. FK is interested in how to continue when all seems lost. 'What's left?' she says. 'That is something I am interested in – becoming a new animal.'
