“Colin Fallows – professor of sound and visual arts at Liverpool John Moores University – is the curator behind the London Wilkinson Gallery’s ‘Sex Pistols, April 1976: The Art of PTMADDEN’.
An artist and curator whose research explores crossovers between sound and the visual arts, Fallows has produced soundworks for live ensemble performance, recordings, exhibitions and installations, radio and the internet, and his artistic and curatorial projects have featured in numerous festivals, galleries and museums worldwide.
He also leads the Colin Fallows Ensemble, an electric guitar trio dedicated to the performance of multi-layered soundworks, dense with microtones which generate numerous overtones through bespoke tuning to resonant performance spaces. The members of the ensemble are Colin Fallows, Bee Hughes and Eva Petersen; its performances combine the precision and clarity of a string trio with the locomotive power of a noise-machine orchestra.
The CFE performed Reverbs, a series of related compositions by Fallows for prepared and treated electric guitars, throughout 2015 at the Wilkinson Gallery, staged in collaboration with the Boudicca fashion house and recorded in ambisonic surround-sound by the British Library Sound Archive.” Michael Bracewell, Wallpaper.com Link to full article.
