blackhumour - binary (and/or)

One my favorite sound artists, using only the human voice as source material.

"NO blackhumour piece has used anything other than found object (spoken) human voice and editing techniques. (since 1986, digital editing has been included, thanks to inexpensive digital sampling.) I wanted the sound source to be absolutely basic. The human voice speaking was about as basic as i could get. The rationale being that we are constantly hearing speech, whether it is from others, or simply the sound of our own voices in our ears."

□ 9 - Tsunami .2

Usually referred to as Square Nine, a one off LP on the Majora label. The only info on this is "Recorded and mixed live by □ 9 at the Grande Theater, Buenos Aires". But, from the Official Sun City Girls Discography:

"Square Nine is a collaboration with the Residents and David Oliphant from Maybe Mental. There, I said it! (Camera switches to a boarding house full of self-proclaimed Residents 'completists' scrambling for the nearest butcher knife to end it all). Of course it couldn't be true, right? Hell, I never took any oath!" -- Rick Bishop
