Aphex Twin. View Your Wish List. Recorded in Linmiri [Lannerlog bedroom studio], probably the last track I ever recorded in that house, quite fitting really, end of that era. I made it when coming back to visit my parents in Cornwall after moving away to go to college to do a degree in microelectronic engineering, which I thankfully never finished, was so boring, always preferred teaching myself, so much more satisfying, letting your mind wander where it needs to go. I usually always give priority to the vinyl versions of all my releases as I never ever really liked CD's much, think I would have liked CD's a little bit more if you could put 90 mins on them, who decided they were to be 74 mins anyway? Thinking about this now I'd love to try and get Warp to do high quality chrome cassette versions of all my Warp musics, maybe even metal ones if possible. If I wait a year or so for this I could include all the extras on the cassettes as there would be plenty of room, would have to sign the tracks over to Warp first for a physical release, something I don't have to do for this website but that shouldn't be too difficult. Someone I used to know, you know who you are, worked as a cleaner in a police station and kindly pinched me a police interview tape. It was with a woman who murdered her husband, it's the background audio in this track. Bought the synthi when I was about 19 from Robin wood at ems, Ladock, Cornwall. Saved Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works: Volume II my money for it for a long time, one of the first synths I ever bought and I know that machine inside and out, magical piece of equipment, Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works: Volume II felt like it was made specially for me.

Selected Ambient Works Volume II - Wikipedia Each Sunday, Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at a significant album from the past, and any record not in our archives is eligible. Today, we revisit an album that changed ambient music forever. The facts were thin on the ground. Richard D. James was from Cornwall, yes—a geographical outsider in the context of earlys UK rave, a kind of coastal cowpoke. James claimed to sleep just two hours a night; claimed, too, that he could control his dreams, even wrote much of his music in his sleep. Did he really drive a decommissioned tank? No matter how tall the tales grew around this Cornish Paul Bunyan, none of them ever came close to eclipsing the music itself. James emerged inat 20 years old, just as UK producers were scrambling to keep up with the newfound domestic demand for electronic dance music. The sound was born in Chicago and Detroit in the mids and imported to the UK in when a handful of London DJs stumbled upon acid, the musical style—along with ecstasy, the chemical compound—while on holiday in Ibiza. Their horizons instantly broadened, they connived to bring the stuff back home, Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works: Volume II wham: a canary-yellow smiley face landed upon fair Albion like a pallet of rations air-dropped by a benevolent conqueror. Local production went into overdrive, and few native sons or daughters it was mostly sons were more determined than James to put their shoulders to the wheel. The floodgates opened. In addition to techno, ambient music—more than that, really, the idea of ambient music—was in the air in the early s, even if nobody could quite agree on what the term was supposed to mean. As a comedown soundtrack, ambient provided a gentle landing pad for psychonauts returning from the trips of the night before; as a mind-expanding spiritual elixir, it went along with oxygen bars, smart drinks, and other trappings of the dial-up counterculture in the final decade of the 20th century. Both were long, largely seamless journeys whose ebb and flow mimicked the fluid path of a psychedelic trip—swirling collages conjoining bucolic synths, pedal steel, classical strings, dub and acid-house rhythms, the occasional thunderclap or train whistle, and barnyard animals. By the ethereal style was unstoppable. The independent label Caroline countered with its own franchise, Excursions in Ambience. Then, as now, Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works: Volume II first Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works: Volume II you become aware of with Selected Ambient Works Volume II is its purity, its starkness, its emptiness. There have been quieter records, more minimal records, more difficult records. But few have done so much with so little; few have shown less interest in being any more forthcoming than they are, in Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works: Volume II the listener anywhere near halfway, in making the slightest attempt at articulating their own ambiguous emotional terrain. SAW II can be warm and it can be chilly; it can be sentimental and it can be forbidding, but it would be hard to call it expressiveexactly. The album opens with a subtle tension: soft synth pads, the most basic, three-chord progression imaginable, cycling uneventfully round and round, while a breathy syllable—a voice, or something remarkably like one—bobs overhead, like a loosed balloon rapidly fading from view. Lilting harp accents turn to steel drums and back. The voice is detuned by just a few nearly imperceptible cents; the delay lags almost unnoticeably behind the beat. Across its 23 or 24, 25, or 26, depending upon the format and edition mostly untitled tracks, the balance tends to tip from one extreme to the other, like someone nervously shifting body weight from foot to foot. You just feel electricity around you. The four tracks that open CD2 both the Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works: Volume II and UK editions; tracks of the digital release make for a particularly compelling stretch. Whatever anyone thought they knew about James, back inmust have dissipated as soon as they finished listening to this album. Where was the ginger enfant terrible with the barbed tongue? Where were the antic flights of fancy? For once, he appeared as if with a finger to his lips, head cocked, inviting us to stand beside him in his imaginary power station and revel wordlessly in the vibrations. Were these barely-there miniatures, these etudes for electrical outlet and tuning fork, meant to be taken as high art? Although the album title suggested an anthology, these pieces could hardly stand on their own: Pull them apart and most would seem lightweight or insubstantial, each one a passing experiment or sketchlike work in progress. But, like the notes of a chord, they drew meaning from their proximity to one another. Were there indeed more of them? It was so committed to its own hermetic world that it shunned even titles. Though unofficial, they have taken on the weight of historical fact: If you rip the CDs into your computer, the Gracenote database will automatically tag the tracks according to the fan-sourced titles. Sitting down with the LP or CD insert could feel like strapping into an alien spacecraft and trying to decipher a flight manual written entirely in pictograms and graphic code. SAW II was not initially greeted as an epochal event. In the world of Aphex arcana, those kinds of revelations can be momentous, discourse-shifting events. But the effect of this newfound knowledge was not like learning how a magician does his tricks. James Album. But it may be that he mapped every square inch of this otherworldly zone in those two-dozen-odd tracks give or take all the material that may have gotten left on the cutting-room floor. He was right. In that sense, SAW was out of step with its pre-millennial peers. While other landmark ambient records of the day hurtled toward the networked future, SAW II was radical in its purism, its refusal to admit anything beyond these Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works: Volume II, quivering frequencies. We tend to think that culture today moves faster than it used to.

En principauté, le lancement des négociations avec l’Union européenne (UE) inquiète pas mal de monde. Notamment les professions libérales qui craignent Dde voir tomber le presque total monopole qu’ont les Monégasques sur ces professions très encadrées réglementairement. « Ceci entraînerait à très court terme la disparition de notre profession telle qu’elle existe depuis des siècles. Ce qui est très préoccupant. D’autant plus que ce sera la même chose pour les médecins, les architectes, les experts-comptables monégasques… », a expliqué à L’Obs’ le bâtonnier de l’ordre des avocats de Monaco, Me Richard Mullot. Une crainte qui a poussé les avocats, les dentistes, les médecins et les architectes à se réunir pour réfléchir à la création d’un collectif. Objectif : défendre auprès du gou- vernement leurs positions et leurs spécificités qui restent propres à chaque profession. En face, le gouvernement cherche à rassurer. Dans l’interview qu’il a accordée à L’Obs’, le ministre d’Etat, Michel Roger, le répète.

Duncan Robinson 3 Signed statement of authority of access to copying This Thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Duncan Robinson 4 Abstract: Inside the video player, spools spin, sensors read and heads rotate, generating an analogue signal from the videotape running through the system to the monitor. Within this electro mechanical space there is opportunity for intervention. Its accessibility allows direct manipulation to take place, creating imagery on the tape as pre-recorded signal of black burst1 without sound rolls through its mechanisms. The actual physical contact, manipulation of the tape, the moving mechanisms and the resulting images are the essence of the variable electrical space within which the analogue video signal is generated. In a way similar to the methods of the Musique Concrete pioneers, or EISENSTEIN's refinement of montage, I have explored the physical possibilities of machine intervention. I am working with what could be considered the last traces of analogue - audiotape was superseded by the compact disc and the videotape shall eventually be replaced by 2 digital video • For me, analogue is the space inside the video player.

It also appears in the Tennessee Williams play A Streetcar Named Desire when Blanche DuBois asks it of Mitch. Seemingly awkward because of its use of the formal pronoun, it means, “Do you want to sleep with me (tonight)?” For ten points, give this phrase re-introduced to a new generation by Mya, Lil’ Kim, Pink, and Christina Aguilera in their 2001 version of “Lady Marmalade”. Answer: Voulez-vous coucher avec moi (ce soir)? 2. In Need for Speed: Most Wanted it’s called “Speed Breaker”, and is most often used to dodge roadblocks. In GUN, it’s called “Quick Draw.” The earliest example of it is probably in the 1980 Epyx game Rescue at Rigel. In Star Wars: Jedi Academy, you can get it using “Force Speed,” by killing Reborn Jedis, or typing the cheat code “there is no spoon.” For ten points, give the common name for the ability in video games to move at normal speed while the rest of the game is slowed down, most famously used in the Max Payne and, predictably, Matrix videogames. Answer: bullet time (Prompt on “slow motion” or equivalents. Note for itinerant cheaters: the cheat code is really “thereisnospoon”) 3.

  • Immersion Into Noise
    Immersion Into Noise Critical Climate Change Series Editors: Tom Cohen and Claire Colebrook The era of climate change involves the mutation of systems beyond 20th century anthropomorphic models and has stood, until recent- ly, outside representation or address. Understood in a broad and critical sense, climate change concerns material agencies that im- pact on biomass and energy, erased borders and microbial inven- tion, geological and nanographic time, and extinction events. The possibility of extinction has always been a latent figure in textual production and archives; but the current sense of depletion, decay, mutation and exhaustion calls for new modes of address, new styles of publishing and authoring, and new formats and speeds of distri- bution. As the pressures and re-alignments of this re-arrangement occur, so must the critical languages and conceptual templates, po- litical premises and definitions of ‘life.’ There is a particular need to publish in timely fashion experimental monographs that redefine the boundaries of disciplinary fields, rhetorical invasions, the in- terface of conceptual and scientific languages, and geomorphic and geopolitical interventions. Critical Climate Change is oriented, in this general manner, toward the epistemo-political mutations that correspond to the temporalities of terrestrial mutation.
