I am a Record • Georgina Starr 160 pages, 32 x 32 x 5cm, hardback, limited edition of 250 ISBN : 2-908252-51-1
Georgina Starr's I AM A RECORD (2010) dissects and reveals the artist's personal, geographic and imagined environment. The work draws on everything Starr has recorded (on audio) since she began hearing voices aged 5 years old. The range of this archive covers: the rumbling of a broken radiator which she thought was speaking to her, re-enactments of secretly recorded stranger's conversation, field recordings, singing voices, paranormal telephony, family dinner conversations, spirit messages, air eddies transformed into music, interviews with psychics and film stars, collected whistles, friend's messages from beyond the grave, love letters played via heavy metal drumming and the sound of a childhood record collection on fire. The I AM A RECORD publication details the collection of sounds pressed on 12" vinyl records (plus covers, posters, inserts and booklets) through image and text. |
