Sounds Heard from the Moon Part 2
** Hand numbered edition of 250 ** There is a profound resonance between the practices of Nam June Paik and Park Jiha - separated by generations yet united by a shared impulse to dissolve boundaries between Korean tradition and contemporary expression. Paik, the pioneer of video art, wove shamanic ritual and Buddhist philosophy into the fabric of technological media; Park Jiha channels ancient instrumental voices through the sensibility of experimental minimalism. Both artists inhabit a liminal …
Battling the Invisible
Edition of 300. Comes with a 8-page booklet.

Battling the Invis…

We Know How To Hate - The Opus De Society story (Book)
Before the internet collapsed distances and democratized distribution, the international noise underground operated through an intricate web of mail-order catalogs, hand-dubbed cassettes, and photocopied fanzines. Labels emerged from bedrooms and basements, their catalogs circulating through postal networks that connected isolated outposts of extreme sound across continents. Few figures navigated this world as actively as Frans de Waard, and few labels embodied its uncompromising spirit as purel…

A Grammar for Listening
2008. Paris and Glasgow. Eric La Casa recording sounds for Luke Fowler's 16mm triptych.

The microphones amplify all living substances in motion - from the interior of the b…
