BIOGRAPHY
Optomusical agglomerate, Sculpture, is Dan Hayhurst (musician) and Reuben Sutherland (visual turntablist). Live performance is integral to their work. Using tape recorder, sampler, video zoetrope and other digital and tactile instruments, Sculpture generate volatile audible and visible musical events.
Through 2015 and early 2016 the duo released tapes on Phinery and Digital Death Records, and an animated 8″ lathe cut postcard on Hasenbart Records.
Sculpture’s Membrane Pop LP was released in 2014 by Software, a label curated by Daniel Lopatin, AKA Oneohtrix Point Never. A live AV cassette/digital/video splice, Video Plot, followed in October. In January 2014, the duo’s self-released animated 7″ single, Plastic Infinite, became an instant cult artifact.
Sculpture previously made two animated zoetrope picture disc LPs for Dekorder records - Rotary Signal Emitter (2010) and Toad Blinker (2011). Their third LP, Slime Code, was released in 2012 on 7 unique cassettes plus digital edition by patten’s Kaleidoscope imprint and later reissued on vinyl by Digitalis.
