Micro-bionic

Written by Jose Luis Espejo Díaz

“Micro Bionic is an exciting new survey of electronic music and sound art from cultural critic and mixed-media artist Thomas Bey William Bailey. The first limited / hardcover edition is currently shipping, while a paperback trade edition is scheduled for tentative release from Creation Books in late summer of 2009.

As the title suggests, the unifying theme of the book is that of musicians and sound artists taking bold leaps forward in spite of (or sometimes because of) their financial, technological, and social restrictions. Some symptoms of this condition include the gigantic discography amassed by the one-man project Merzbow, the drama of silence enacted by onkyo and New Berlin Minimalism, the annihilating noise transmitted from the humble laptop computers of Russell Haswell and Peter Rehberg and much more besides. Although the journey begins in the Industrial 1980s, in order to trace how the innovations of that period have gained greater currency in the present, it surveys a wide array of artists breaking ground in the 21st century with radical attitudes and techniques. A healthy amount of global travel, exclusive interviews with the artists within, and concentrated listening have combined to make this a sophisticated yet accessible document unafraid to explore both the transgressive extremes of this culture and the more deftly concealed interstices thereof.

Part historical document, part survival manual for the marginalized electronic musician, part sociological investigation, Micro Bionic is a number of different things, and as such will likely generate a variety of reactions from inspiration to offense. Here are a few excerpts from the forthcoming book, as well as the original table of contents.”
