Solitude Of Sounds (In Memoriam Tomasz Sikorski)
"Solitude of Sounds: in memoriam Tomasz Sikorski" is a collection of works created in Polish Radio Experimental Studio by Polish pioneer of minimalism, Tomasz Sikorski and by his friends and followers. The American flavour of minimalism has an "urban" soundscape that emerges from frenetic human interaction. It is the environment that informs a lifestyle and thus, informs the composer. On the other hand, the Dutch style of minimalism is what I'd call "Hippie minimalism". It is informed by culture…

Les Couleurs Du Prisme, La Mecanique Du Temps
The Colours of the Prism, the Mechanics of Time. A film by Jacqueline Caux. From John Cage to Techno, through minimalism and post-modernism. This film was inspired by the itinerary of a Ôgap-bridger': Daniel Caux, a musicologist, essayist and radio producer, who made endless discoveries in the fields of experimental, minimalist, repetitive, postmodern and techno music. His contribution is all the more important in that these past four decades have been particularly rich in terms of creati…
Der Italienische manierismus
Limited to 300 copies. 'A certain line of thinking and feeling that runs from the hermetic and mannerist times from the dusk of the renaissance through the unfolding of the baroque has been very influential for me in the past few years and seems to resurface in this collection of pieces. Conceptual frameworks here are often wrapped in luscious drapery as in the case of Rosso or It is an island while compositions proceed by elongated proportions, highly stylized poses and allegoric artific…

Paranoia In Hi-Fi
LAST COPIES, reduced price...One of the cheapest Nurse With Wound records you'll ever buy -- a special CD with a pricetag of 99p in the UK, selling here for a few dollars more by the time we got it in the US!

Interstices
Through these interstices, when conscience — this present to one’s self — falls asleep; through this tiny little interval between two instants, something arises, something you had never thought of; The erring ways of thought; through the cracks thus created, we lend our voice to the characters that rule over an unknown existence. These sounds are too rich of all their possible existence…

Experimental Films (1943-1959)
"From the early 1940's until her death in 1961, Maya Deren evoked and exemplified the American avant-garde movement virtually by herself. Her first film, Meshes Of The Afternoon, set the tone for the decade and linked the movement to the older European avant-garde films of Cocteau and Bunuel". -- Cecil Starr, The New York Times. "Intensely personal, symbolic and surreal films that reveal her deepest, darkest fantasies. She's Fellini and Bergman wrapped in one gloriously possessed body. Watching …
