Medium: Paranormal Field Recordings and Compositions, 1901–2017

Curated by artist Ben Coleman, ‘Medium: Paranormal Field Recordings and Compositions, 1901-2017’ brings together original works from musicians, composers, and other sonic artists who operate within the liminal spaces between art and the paranormal; from clairaudient musical psychics to researchers of Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP). Also featured are compelling and previously unreleased field recordings from parapsychology archives in the US and Europe, including the infamous Enfield Poltergeist (1977-1979), and audio from a wax cylinder recording made in Siberia in 1901 that is considered by experts to be the very first EVP recording.

A comprehensive overview of the complex and shifting terrain covered by EVP ... will surely haunt the dreams of anyone who listens too closely -Ken Hollings, The Wire
