Jimi Hendrix’s guitar and the original title sequence in Dr Who are probably the best known examples of the creative use of feedback. In 2004 an international array of musicians toured the UK under the umbrella title of Feedback – Order from Noise. Included in the tour was Toshimaru Nakamura with his No Input Mixing Desk who performed with Billy Roisz who played live with video feedback. Coinciding with their visit to Hull this programme brings together a number of rarely seen works that exploit both the conceptual and expressive qualities of feedback, plus a new live performance work by Pete McPartlan.
NOTES ON A LINE
David Leister UK, 1987, sound, B&W, 12 mins, 16mm
Featuring Aleks Kolkowski (violin) and Alex Maguire (piano) recorded on film playing live to a silent film of themselves playing. Image and music progressively overlap until they act as one.
PHASED TIME2
David Hall UK, 1974, sound, colour, 12 mins, 16mm
Systems music for film. Each of six two minute sections of a pan around a room and with synthesiser and organ notes are matted and superimposed upon its predecessor producing visual and aural phase shifts.
FILM FEEDBACK
Tony Conrad USA, 1974, silent, colour, 14 mins, 16mm
Produced from an event where the projected image was a film of its self projected.
MONITOR 1
Steve Partridge UK, 1975, 6 mins, video
Monitor 1 exploits the formal properties of video feedback.
WHAT IS SOUL?
David Blandy UK, 2002, 3 mins, video
