ABSTRACT:
Sample passage: “Although the sound-image connection has rarely been used because of its ‘unmusical’ properties, it is nonetheless fascinating to trace this musical moment, the first known entry of this technique into avant-garde electronic music. Furthermore, Niinisalo’s revelations about the Aphex Twin face surely add a new, important dimension to the interpretation of James’s music. Beyond the clever use of masks across the range of Aphex Twin video clips, the Windowlicker sound-image surpasses itself as an exercise in hyperbole. Transcending a cultural tradition of inexplicable mystical transformation, whether divine (the Word made flesh) or scientific (alchemy’s dream of transforming lead into gold), James succeeds, miraculously, in creating music in his own image.”
