Sculpture

Biography

Sculpture is an audiovisual performance duo from London – electronic music producer, Dan Hayhurst, and animator, Reuben Sutherland. Together they create a kind of unstable modular collage with rhythm and spontaneity; Sutherland ‘DJs’ with home-made zoetropic discs, intricate concentric rings of illustrated frames projecting fragments of looping images at 33, 45 and 78 rpm, and pre-Edisonian imaging technology combined with a digital video camera. Hayhurst deploys found tapes, lo-fi electronics, computer programming, and analogue noise across 1⁄4” tape loops, backed with hardware samplers, a cassette walkman and a CDJ deck. All this comes together as an amalgam of found sounds & imagery, Plunderphonics and ancient electronic music recalling the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, mixed hands-on on the spot.
