Description: Noise DJ and sound artist Joe Banks interviewed for BBC Scotland music programme "The Beat Room" in 1998. The content of the interview relates to recordings of (usually VLF band) radio noise produced by electric storms, the sun, live mains electricity, VLF "whistlers", domestic appliances, IT technology and industrial hardware, railway and metro systems etc, produced by Disinformation (and released by the record company Ash International) on CD and LP between 1996 and 1999... "the musical signature of the urban environment". See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B13-09K-Ubc (video and text) for more details. These ideas were later "rediscovered" (lock, stock and barrel) by artists like Honor Harger and Joyce Hinterding. Disinformation's VLF work was most recently exhibited in the "4:33" exhibition at Kunstverein Bregenz, Austria in July 2007 (alongside work by Martin Creed), see http://www.bregenzerkunstverein.at/english/m4_4_33.htm http://www.ashinternational.com/html/reviews/disinformation.html
