« Égregore source » is an edition that transpose a performance work of the chdh collective on digital media: the source code of the « egregore » performance is made fully available as a software to download or as a usb key. Beyond the documentary aspect, this edition aims to exploit the physical dispersion of this digital support, in order to develop a broadcasting structure for a networked audiovisual performance. The multiple personal computers hosting the software constitute a distributed « stage », where the artists will be able to interpret « egregore » remotely by sending a data flow that activate the provided software. These control data are then stored on a server, and remain accessible and usable with the software.

Audio data cassette – Ltd Ed. 256 ex.

LogforData is an audio tape composed of several audio coding protocols extracted from a 56k modem, FAX as well as personal computers from the 1980’s. This audio data also contains several texts from online secure conversations between several members of an IRC channel.

The decoding of the content is made possible by linking up a cassette player to a computer connected to the website logfordata.net. A personal version of the text appears according to the accuracy of the tape player, the swiftness of the computer system and its Internet connection. The tape has 15 minutes of audio data streams per side, one in French and one in English. The decoded texts give us a glimpse into the existence of a pure data ecosystem, a world where information has mutated towards an independent life form.

Notes by Rene T.A. Lysloff
electrocore_indonesia is a sound research project developed by Venzha Christ, one of several experimental activities at the HONF Foundation and v.u.f.o.c lab. The works by electrocore_indonesia on this vinyl recording are an archive made up of selections chosen by Artkillart.

The nine works here are real time sound fields, each the result of clandestine documentation, public performance, or research and experimentation over a ten year span from 2000 to 2009. Two important themes are conveyed in this collection:
1. electrocore_indonesia presents an illegal system of producing an artistic concept. He does this by hacking a place, situation, or network.
2. electrocore_indonesia has never created a sound or tonal composition himself. Instead, he simply witnessed something existing for a long time and already “apparent,” something that could already be heard, seen, or felt.

2 x Vinyl 12″, Silkscreened Cover – Ltd. Ed. 444 ex.

DRIFT-01 contains the archive of a concert of 4 turntablists improvising together was organized and recorded on 4 separate tracks on june 16 2011. These 4 tracks became the 4 grooves, which meet on each side. A special technique was used to cut those several grooves, and layer them over each other in order to make them intersect continuously on the whole surface of the disc. Playing the record produces a mix between the 4 physical sources. When you hear the sound coming from the left or right, it is physically how the pickup is drifting on the surface. The same applies to the clicks and cuts that signify that the needle has jumped. The pickup continually changes groove throughout its reading. And because it is impossible to read the 4 grooves simultaneously, you listen to one musician after the other but never reach the same listening experience as live in concert. The nature of the turntable, the quality and wear of the needle, as well as playing with different settings (cons-weight, anti-skating…) are factors that affect the reading path. The duration becomes elastic, new paths become available while some others disappear and some phenomenas of looping or going backward may occur.
