Sonica 2012 is a Glasgow-wide celebration of world-class sonic art and music to ravish the senses. Sonica is delighted to present part of its programme at CCA, exploring the potential of sonic art through music, visual art, film and new media. Produced by Cryptic in association with hcmff//. For other Sonica 2012 events, please visit www.sonic-a.co.uk.

Glasgow based filmmaker and 2012 Turner Prize nominee Luke Fowler’s kaleidoscopic and enigmatic view of the life and work of composer Cornelius Cardew, founder of experimental musical collective the Scratch Orchestra (1968 - 1973).

Juxtaposing first-person interviews, recent and archive footage, still photographs, short animated sequences and predominantly unreleased music, Fowler has created an appropriately unconventional and compelling film-work, which highlights the issues raised by and the synergies between Cardew’s and his own creative practice.
