CRACK CLOUD (Meat Machine Records)
In this age of the individual, Crack Cloud offer something of an antithesis: a collective founded on community spirit and communal freedom. Like Psychic TV before them, Crack Cloud have a philosophy, and one that they are not afraid to wear on their sleeves. While their anarchic, phantasmagorical visuals, heavy use of symbology, and seemingly never-ending cast of colourful collaborators have often invited cult comparisons, this really does the collective no justice. There is no apocalyptic death drive here; no cult of personality; no hierarchy of power. While frontman and lyricist Zach Choy is in many ways the face of the group, the collective is one founded on equality, and in his cryptic lyrical blending of poetics, polemics and personal experience, Choy is truly the mouthpiece of something far larger than himself.
Military Genius (Unheard of Hope)
War-torn industrial, experimental r&b, and visceral ambience are unified under the banner of Military Genius, an audiovisual project that mirrors the political and existential turmoil of our times. Spreading a message of peace amidst the turbulence, Military Genius blends rigid composition and free-form noise, producing abstract, meditative representations of real-life experience.

Friday 10th September Attrition
Without Martin Bowes Alternative Sounds fanzine its unlikley I would of taken any of these shots. He’s also been fronting Attrition since then & is still standing – so its great to have him onboard with Attrition’s first gig in Coventry for over five years.
DJ Mark Cook
Mark’s Mark E. Smith Fall events got me into experimenting with my images – projecting them at the old CET print room & at The Tin which was then the inspiration for doing a show there.
Sunday 12th September Alex Miles vs Mark Osborne – Mutant Image / Synth Battle
I’ll be doing some sort of ‘audio reactive performative visuals’ (ha) with Alex Miles – who will be doing the audio – this is more a improvised performance than gig and will be happening on the sunday afternoon in The Tin workshop space.
Alex Miles
Alex Miles is part of the mighty SynthCurious who have been doing lots of really neat synth based stuff in Cov over the last few years.
Monday 13th September – Ashley James Brown – Processing Community Day Coventry
Day long coding workshop in The Tin Community Space.
Ashley James Brown
Ashley James Brown is an awesome Cov based ‘creative coder’ dude who is putting on Processing Community Day Coventry – assisted by me. I think you can or will be able to sign up for this via this Processing Community Day Coventry link.. For more about Processing Community Day check here.
This is all free – except the Attrition gig – £6 advance, £8 on the door.
The show was financially supported by Coventry City of Culture Trust, click here to check out their website.
