Half-fish half-agate creatures collect debris while others

It is intended for playback in a room via loudspeakers

fluid music of “Archi” perfectly succeeds in expressing the parallel influences of ecstatic Afro-American ethnic music and of the contemporary neo-avant-gardes

Phill Niblock – T H I R [DVD] Sound Art / Sound Poetry Half-fish half-agate creatures collect debris"A milestone film from American composer and filmmaker Phill Niblock, presented for the first time in DVD with two alternate soundtracks. T H I R is a mesmerizing and hypnotic film from his Environments series shot in upstate New York in 1972. This film is one of Niblock`s finest and undiscovered jewels. A must have classic release."
