Philipp Bückle ~ Paintings
For a while, it seemed that Dortmund’s Philipp Bückle might complete his trilogy early. The first two entries in the series, Sketches and Drawings, were released in 2015, and were the first recordings under his own name. But it does take longer to complete

Luton ~ Black Box Animals
The vantage points may change, but the views are the same: the inside looking out. The cover portrays the mouth of a cave; the video, a train and tunnel. As one gazes at the great expanse, one thinks of a

Paul Nataraj ~ You Sound Like a Broken Record
This is one of the coolest projects we’ve encountered all year. Seeing these slices of vinyl makes us feel jealous, wistful and humble. This PhD project has already been displayed at an art center in Glasgow and a symposium in
