NOTES • SPATIALISATION
This work is a collective BEAST presentation which was premiered at the Millennium Awards ceremony in the foyer of Hall 1 at the ICC, Birmingham in 1999. It features extracts curated from a number of BEAST members and, in its original version, was mixed to a 16-channel presentation format which explored the peculiar shape of the foyer. To allow easier presentation at other venues, however, it has been reworked to the present 8-channel version.
