Camera flashes illuminate the waving arms of fans and the lights on stage flash in rhythm. Shown on specific 1968 Eumig Projector, manufactured in the year the group formed.

2008, Laser prints, 119cm x 84cm each.
Series of 3 A0 prints derived from ASCII guitar tablatures for the song Fade to Black by Metallica, sourced online. Each print features a tablature by a different individual, transcribed by ear and posted to a newsgroup or website. The text of each of these is compressed to form the shape of a circle, the size and pattern within each is determined by the original document. The documents contain the individual interpretation of how to play the song as well as personal comments, email or name of the tabber. It represents their perspective on the world and by extension can become a portrait of the individual.
