ART(AD)

I've been getting heavily into making marks on paper of late and there has been some strange magic floating around because of this. 
Not so magical is FB and Insta deciding that my artblog is spam. Now this could very well have been me posting too many links (though I didn't think there were that many and why don't they tell you how many is too much?) So many questions that of course will never be answered.

BOMBART: GRAHAM DUFF PRESENTS 'THE MISSING HORRORS'
A one hour sound collaboration between writer, actor and director Graham Duff and artist/musician Peter Harris including contributions from Cosey Fanni Tutti (Throbbing Gristle), Colin Newman & Graham Lewis (Wire), Saul Adamczewski (Fat White Family), Sheila Ellis, Stephen Thrower, Dorothy Max Prior, Matt Shaw, Malka Spigel, Misha Begley, Jamaican toaster Prince Hammer and trumpet and trombone from David Fullwood and David Andrews. And all the regular BOMBART collaborators Fritz Catlin (23 Skidoo), artist/composer Saron Hughes, Aloha Dead, and vocals from BOMBART partner Mark Stewart (The Pop Group). And most poignantly of all, some of the final recordings from the genius and Harris's long term collaborator Lee "Scratch" Perry (rest in power)
