In Ear to the Ground, David Van Tieghem uses the city of Manhattan as his musical instrument, playing the surfaces of the sidewalks, buildings and phone booths with his drumsticks to elicit an ingenious range of percussive sounds.
Wayne Hays Blues (Secretary), is a satire of Washington's sexual politics, set to music by Jill Kroesen.
Inspired by the music of Peter Gordon and his band Love of Life Orchestra, Siberia juxtaposes the ghostly landscapes of Antarctica and Siberia with the deserted inner city.
The Long Island is a perceptual exercise that reworks material from The Resolution of the Eye to Gordon's ethereal music.
Shot in Saskatchewan, And Now This... transforms landscape through technology, evoking the pristine lines of wheat fields and abandoned farm buildings.
