Cfr. nn. Arch. 183.64, 184.65 ZERO is a limited edition collection of one-minute soundworks by international sound artists, experimental composers, noise makers and other audio creators. Contributors were invited to create an original recording of one-minute duration for the CD on the theme of ZERO – whether through their stripped-down, low-tech aesthetic or a focus on themes of absence, abstraction, distortion or a sense of thereshold between one state and another. The CD contains a broad variety of one-minute soundworks and presents the results of artists working thematically in chance juxtaposition. By bringing together this calibre and range of contributions, ZETRO aims to stimulate further interest in the artist work and practice, debate and dialogue surrounding sound art. The artists on ZERO range from well known world figures, to individuals and groups making their first wirks in this field. ZERO was commisioned by the Foundation for Art & Creative Technology (FACT) and was published with the support from Liverpool Art School.

Descrizione:
Stylus is the pseudonym of the reclusive experimentalist Dafydd Morgan. In April 1997 he released the track "Kinski" (a tribute to Klaus Kinski) on a 10" split record with the band Longstone. "A lengthy, multi-layered piece of electronica, taking in vintage Cluster and 90's digi-dub", as The Wire found out. In 1998 he was part of The Serpents, a collaboration of artists on Ochre Records and Cradiff based Ankst Records (including David Wrench, Skyray, Will Sergeant of Echo & The Bunnymen, Ectogram, Longstone, Rheinhallt H. Rowlands, The Anglesey Ambient Experiment, Zoe Skoulding and Môr) which released their debut 7" single No Mask, No Cloak, Dim Gobaith on 18 May 1998. On 24 June 1998 his track "Paradise Ranch" was broadcast on "The John Peel Show". About "Glass Dream 1", released in November 1998 on the first INFRASONIC WAVES-EP-sampler, the Record Collector wrote: "Stylus put Baudelaire to a throbbing psychedelic backdrop"... Stylus now has forthcoming tracks appearing on Liquefaction Empire, Oggum and Space Age compilations.
