Attack Decay Sustain Release

Attack Decay Sustain Release ran at the Stanley Picker Gallery from 20 January to 28 March, featuring work by artists in residence Sophie Huckfield, Nnena Kalu, Rebecca Kressley, curator Lisa Slominski, and Abbas Zahedi.

My involvement, aside from helping to come up with the title (it's good, hey!) was putting Kingston School of Art sound work in the gallery alongside the fellows. I ran it as an open call, and a range of projects were proposed, from students across undergraduate, taught postgrad and PhD levels in KSA Performing Arts.

A lot of attention around the event went to Nnena Kalu, who had just won the Turner Prize six weeks before we opened, and rightly so. Nobody wrote about the students, so here they are:

• Thomas Boulousis, PhD
• Chloe Kirson-Jones, PhD
• Richard Crow, PhD
• Lane Fox, MA Music
• Artie Sanida, BA Hons Music Technology
• Francesca Williams and Adimesh Baidwan, BA Hons Music Technology
• Fin Beresford and Amy Gardner, BA Hons Music Technology

Circadia, a project from On The Record CIC with Kingston University Nursing, also took a slot to run a pilot of their immersive oral history art installation that captures 100 years of nursing stories and sequences them to clock time, sound, music and a moving light sculpture. I have since joined the project, as a collaborator in KSA and under the aegis of the Visconti Studio.

Anyway, it was great! Here's a link: Attack Decay Sustain Release
