For the 8-INCH, 50 unique artist editions will be produced with original sound and artwork on square 8-INCH vinyl and cover by MICHAEL MORLEY.The issue further contains a poster and a photo. PERFORMANCES On the evening MICHAEL MORLEY will perform a live set, featuring SPECIAL GUESTS (to be announced later).

Curated by freelance curator Roland Groenenboom, the exhibition contains recent watercolours, paintings and drawings made in New Zealand, as well as those made during MORLEY’s residency in Paris (June – August 2009). It also includes in situ works by MORLEY, who will spend most of August in Rotterdam to work both on visual art and recordings in the studio of WORM. In his visual production, MORLEY explores how the vast territory of sound may be used within the truly visual practice of painting, among others focusing on how silence and painting relate to each other. His research takes on different forms: from paintings on seven-inch records to watercolours of vintage guitar amplifiers and speaker stacks, and from watercolours of anonymous high-rise buildings to paintings of record players that appear to play a vinyl record.
