Records Made From Ice
'Langjökull, Snæfellsjökull, Solheimajökull' by Katie Paterson
3 litres glacial meltwater, 3 litres silicon, 3 turntables [2007]
Sound recordings from three glaciers in Iceland, pressed into three records, cast, and frozen with the meltwater from each of these glaciers, and played on three turntables until they completely melt. The records were played once and now exist as three dvds. The turntables begin playing together, and for the first ten minutes as the needles trace their way around, the sounds from each glacier merge in and out with the sounds the ice itself creates. The needle catches on the last loop, and the records play for nearly two hours, until completely melted.
Three glacier ice records, played until they melt.

LSD - The development of a spit
Diagram of a spit. Longshore drift moves material along the coast. The material is dropped, forming a spit. As more material is dropped the spit grows. Eventually the spit may turn parallel to the coast (a hook). The protected area behind this hook could become mud flats or salt marshes as more material is deposited.

England's Greatest Living Scotsman
Suede biographer David Barnett was our press officer in 2004. He now fronts The New Royal Family which is a bit like watching Adam Ant if he sang funny songs about biscuits, tortoises and wanting to be gay. I saw them on Saturday, I hope they play again soon.
