Hämndslöjd #1 - FC JUDD [FILM] J.Ö.S [LIVE] DJ:s BAR

HÄMNDSLÖJD PRESENTERAR:

FILM: Practical Electronica (2011, 60 mins)
Focussing on the work of FC Judd (1914-1992), this experimental documentary
from multi-media artist Ian Helliwell, examines Fred Judd’s activity with
electronics and musique concrete during the 1950s and 60s. Although high
profile at that time via the soundtrack for ITV sci-fi puppet series Space
Patrol, and regular appearances on BBC radio, his work has since been
overlooked and slipped into obscurity. Examining the innovative career of
this English musician, inventor, engineer, designer and author, the film
explores his experiments with tape recorders and synthesizer, filling in a
lost chapter in early electronic music history. With the cooperation of his
widow, Fred’s accomplishments are explained through cine film, archive
footage, animation and experimental video – all materials that Helliwell
has a unique affinity with. The documentary has no interviewees, and
remains rooted in the amateur tape recording world that Fred inhabited
during the 60s, weaving together narration, electronic sounds and his
voice, to tell his unique story.

LIVE: J.Ö.S I över 20 års tid har J.Ö.S (Johan Öhman Sollin) varit allmänt
besatt av filmer porträtterande framtiden och i synnerhet dessa filmers
lågbudgetmässiga ljudläggning och avskalade musik. Med hjälp av en digital
synthesizer och en rullbandspelare skapar han nu sina egna ljud från
grunden, både kontrollerade och okontrollerade men alltid inspirerade av
denna besatthet. En kort beskrivning skulle kunna vara ljudupptagningen av
ett långsamt krossat mutantkranium mot en pulserande vägg av atonala
synthesizer-toner. Till vardags jobbar JÖS på Exela Technologies Inc. Han
är närmast aktuell med sin första LP ”ULTRA” på göteborgsbolaget iDEAL
under Q1 2018.
