Exclusion Principle and Lost Garden

Exclusion Principle and Lost Garden each played a set at a new Sheffield venue last night…upstairs above Eten Cafe on York Street. Both groups joined together at the end to perform what the called a “sonic jam” I was near the front and didn’t have a wide enough lens so this shot combines two photos: Martin Archer , Hervé Perez, Andy Peake and Nick Robinson from one, and drummer Peter Fairclough on the other.

On first was Sound Sculptor Ben Potts exploring the boundaries between geometry, sound and
sculpture with his piece Cuboid.
