Human Separation

Human Separation is a mechanical band performance incorporating a wide variety of
mundane motorized objects/machines adapted to play the stock instruments of live rock
music. An ongoing venture that investigates the possibilities and problems of inserting
primitive technologies between the musicians hands and the instrument.

Human Separation is an elaborately visual sound performance where machines are elevated
to the position of performers and we are reduced to the role of stage hands, stripping the
traditional theatricality out of the live rock experience, yet all functioning together as a single
musical organism. The music itself drifts from mesmeric ambience to an obliterative noise
onslaught. The band is intended to be experienced aurally and visually and was born of
working with both kinetic sculpture and sound.
