I am an audio and visual artist working solo and in various outfits, this webpage is for THAT STUFFF... (mainly the solo stufff and really only the audio stuff...)
maybe one day i'll make a real website, but for now if your interested in my work you can hear it here, see works in my photos, and browse documentation of shows and exhibits
here on vimeo and here on youtube!
I highly recommend this website profiling NZ sound culture:The Audio Foundation.
I have a profile in the Artists section, with a bio and discography if you need to read it, and there are links to related Artists and free downloads.
DIRTROOM/WOLFSKULL split 10" lathe cut - Visit ROOT DON LONIE FOR CASH myspace page.
UEB SYSTEMS. CDR. David Merritt and Alex MacKinnon. A set of recordings culled from many nights of kitchen table recordings with fire place, gadgets, radios, fencing-wire-strung-through-the-alley-way... while living in wanganui.
Khomet Live at None Gallery. CDR. 2007 Live show recording... At some point the whole band is replaced by drunken megalomaniacs from the audience...
DEADleg/ WSM. CDR. Collaborative recordings with Dunedin group DEADleg and the vaporous North Island collection WSM. Spiritual music of the tumbleweed...
Flower In Gold. 2xCDR. Edition of 5. $50. Hand bound gold photographic book style package; gold photograms and painting by Alex MacKinnon. For two stereos playing simultaneously. Yes; its rather elaborate...
Hey AX! Well spotted, that certainly was Shannon in that pic...looking fowards to seeing you guys next monday. Hope Lines goes well, wish I could b there
Yea ive got the one with the brown card sleeve and black stamp. My name is William, I'm also in a Wangas band called Body 125, should check us out (myspace. com/body125). It's more Industrial/Post-Punk, i just made Deathdream because I've always loved shoegaze and droning noises
thanks alex! december is going to be great - negotiations about chch spaces were heating up about an hour ago at HSP's adrian hall show... + a fantastic excuse for me to try + finish something... and finally succumb to the myspace-netherworld :) x
Hey Alex, are you still in touch with Sugar Face? Pumice was asking if he could play at the EoN with Pumice and Sets (ie Brandon) on the 24th Oct... cheers man hope all is good in Dunedin
Hauntingly beautiful... makes me feel like I'm actually in Dunedin on a cold winters morning walking round the south-eastern shipping/industrial area... in a really really good way! I hope to see you play sometime.
That sounds great - when is it? We are always keen to play, but not great at organising our own gigs. : ) We are supporting Rafael Toral at the end of June (I think). Peter P.
