PULp Tower Bridge, 1977 PULp made numerous experiments on the River Thames to do with echo, the use of acoustic chambers affected by varied tidal conditions and sounds made in and through water. "This duo Paul Burwell and Anne Bean, have performed in many contexts and environments. They just did a recent performance at Tower Bridge in which PB drummed in a rowing boat with drums and cymbals wired up so that they lit up with the contact of his metallised drum sticks. AB swam and vocalised around the boat with two fish attached to her shoulders and red life boat lights attached to her ankles. The whole scene was lit by flashing lights from river boats and spot lights from the balcony of the warehouse/studio they use. ‘Pulp’ is a new venture and their single captures the intensity of their live performance. I was stunned." D I Fanzine Back to PULp main page. |
