Dokument einer Installation, wo COLLEY auf kreativste Weise Bedeutungsebenen von Klang & Sprache aufeinander abgebildet hat!
"Joe Colley of course is one of the USA unsung heroes of sound and noise. This one-sided 7" contains the sound of an installation piece: 'No - Intermittent Positive Negation In Two Syllables'. Two reel to reel machines have tape-loops that go out of the machines, along bolts and spell the letter 'n' and the letter 'o' on the wall (the cover looks great). The loops contain the pronunciation of these syllables. Sometimes we hear the word 'no' spelled out, and sometimes it seems just non-sense. A great conceptual work of this negative man. Probably it was great to see, but as a record by itself, it also sounds great."[FdW / Vital Weekly]
"This is a document of an installation piece involving two loops running modified courses on two reel to reels; while the loops warble pleasantly in and out of synch, the sounds of the machines alone will give you a delectable claustrophobia, making you feel at home in a barn full of slowly ailing mechanical bulls. Hand signed edition of 233 copies..." [label info]
