I thought that it might be best to put together short Digests of about 5 or 6 items that may be of interest on this blog. This will be easier for you to read and keep up with and for me to put together. So here goes…

I have often wondered…

An Interview with the Soundscape Composer

and some thoughts of my own by Randolph Jordan

It occurred to me that not everyone is on Facebook and often there are interesting news items that come up on the Feminatronic Connect Facebook page that not everyone can see. So I thought that I would have the occasional posts that grouped together some of these items and hopefully bring them to a wider audience. So here goes..

entropy : Louise Mackenzie

As part of her first solo exhibition, transformation content, at The Holy Biscuit Gallery, artist Louise Mackenzie broadcasts a composition that explores the relationship between human social behaviour and the scientific construct of entropy.

Entropy is a sound installation that begins with physical objects, is transformed into a live performance and then ends as a digital entity, broadcast daily on basic.fm and into the gallery space until the close of the exhibition.
