He’s a video artist, okay... he’s Gordon Way... a.k.a. DJ ANY WAY... and he makes sounds for you to play... okay, now I go away...

As our first connection with Gordon was doing the track “Here” for the “Gordon’s Way” video, we thought he might appreciate the return of a couple of familiar voices to introduce him. So we sent Dr. Patel along to visit her psychopathic patient, currently serving life in Millhaven.

KILLER: Dr. Patel, you have come to visit me.
DR. PATEL: I have come to visit you.
KILLER: This pleases me, it is very lonely here, fuck this.
DR. PATEL: Fuck this.
KILLER: I have said sorry for killing those girls, but they will not let me out.
DR. PATEL: Accusing you.
KILLER: Accusing me.
DR. PATEL: I am here because the Magic Bullet want us to introduce Gordon Way, do you know who he is?
KILLER: Who he am.
DR. PATEL: He makes pictures that move.
KILLER: Yes! You and I appeared in one of his videos. I know who he is.
DR. PATEL: How does that make you feel?
KILLER: He is not real, he is a construct, he does not belong here.
DR. PATEL: The only place he belongs is here.

GORDON WAY (EFSPACM member)
The first EFSPACM project we took part in (after they stopped deleting our posts, and no, Gordon wasn’t involved, he’s much too nice for that) was to produce a soundtrack for a video by him. We were one of ten artists to do so, our take being a musique concrète psychodrama called “Here”, based on a word that appeared as graffiti on a wall at the end of the video, and featuring the two characters in the introductory piece above. The results were released on an album called “Gordon’s Way” (oh yes, they’d put some serious thought into that one) and Skit and I found it quite fascinating how our experience of the visual images changed with every different sound interpretation. We were keen on more, and luckily, so was Gordon, so we’ve just done “Eleven Experiments In Trisecting Them” together, his video, eleven experimental soundtracks by us.
