Cryptic Nights has grand plans for 2011. Hosted from Cryptic’s home CCA in 2009-2010, 2011 will see Cryptic Nights venture into new larger-scale, bi-monthly and often site specific territories.
Inducer unleashes this new direction.
Inducer
05/06/07 MAY
An old piano and other instruments come to life with a cacophony of rust and stone, oak and glass, hair and bone towers incandescent.
Taking inspiration from psychological anomaly Folie à deux (shared delusional psychosis) Inducer is an immersive animated environment where musicians and sound sculptures merge into the unsettling realms of the unreal.
Inducer is a new work for Cryptic Nights by Glasgow-based artist Robbie Thomson. Joined by Sarah Milne and Jack Wrigley, Thomson’s Inducer fuses kinetic sculpture, musical instrument design and costume to create an off-kilter, curious and peculiar world which promises to delight, disarm and disorientate in equal measure.
‘Thomson has a reputation for engaging with music outside the traditional gig.’ Skinny
