For all you TG/X-TG and Chris and
Cosey fans, have a look at this link for info on this collector’s item double
vinyl, double CD, digital downloads and special edition double white vinyl
albums of X-TG’s “Desertshore” and “The Final Report”. I particularly enjoyed “frieze”, the video footage
of Chris and Cosey explaining how Peter Christopherson’s original December 2006
proposal to do a cover version of Nico’s 1970 album “Desertshore” album led
them to taking it up before his death in 2010 and “I Live With Wires”, an
indepth look at how Chris Carter created TG’s original sound throughout the 70s
and 80s using his custom-built modular synths and Chris and Cosey’s musical progression
to date.

Berlin Sculptress Mona Fuchs
During my stay in Berlin in the
mid-1980s, I was fortunate enough to meet Mona Fuchs through the Das
CassetenCombinat crew. Mona was a
sculptress who welded pieces of scrap gears, automobile parts, bicycle wheels,
rebar, air filters, pitchforks and other metal together into minimalist metal
art. She was gracious enough to exhibit
an installation of her artworks for one of my live performances. Here are some photos taken at her atelier and
video stills of how I integrated her sculptures into my performance.
