Conical Sound Series A Poke in the Eye is a Good Distraction from a Ringing Ear
So, who's it for and what's it about?
A series of live sound performances at Fitzroy’s Conical Inc aimed to provide selected musicians and artists with an opportunity to realise their work within the context of the gallery space. Historical anatomical illustrations were rearranged to form an explanatory, diagrammatic identity as bemusing as the project’s title, with links made between the experimental nature of the sound series, and the macabre and curious medical treatments recorded in 19th century medical journals.
