This is the Score, 2005
Wall drawing/performance/video

The ‘score’ is a detourned version of a drawing from a punk rock fanzine of 1976 which states;
This is a chord
This is another
This is a third... Now form a band
Flipping/mirroring the fingering of the chords of the original formed new chord diagrams, chords which would render a sound more dissonant than the orginal three. This new drawing became a score which was used for the basis of a performance/film piece in a series of group shows that toured Germany during 2005. In each of the exhibition’s four stations musicians were contacted and invited to ‘play’ their response to the score at a concert during the opening of the show.
