Jem Finer - Water And Birds #1

A founding member of The Pogues, it is Jem's more recent works that resonate here, specifically Score for a hole in the ground (2006). Located in a Kent forest, it is a simple structure, inspired by the suikinkutsu water chimes of Kyoto, that amplifies water dripping down a well. It is also conceptually a trilogy of approaches to the sound of dripping water - as natural environmental sound, as rhythm and as ritualistic performance prop. Water and Birds #1 comes from 2005.

Roger McKinley - Insomnia (edit)

Created as a 29-minute piece for broadcast during Isea 98, this edit was composed using amateur actors and found sounds. Aside from the street recordings, Two-Step, Gotham City sample and spoken word, all sounds were constructed from the single ‘drip’ sample. McKinley is author of the award-winning Jackson Pollock the musical published by Michael Butterworth in 2007.
