Juno Reactor DVD July 2007
Juno Reactor will be releasing a new DVD in July 2007, and it looks like there is a tour coming up, as I had a message today regarding Mabi Thobejane – more information on that when Ben answers his Skype messages!
But in the meantime, here is a short trailer for that soon-to-be-released DVD…
Juno Reactor was initially formed in 1990 by musicians Ben Watkins & Stephen Holweck as an experimental ambient project to record a soundtrack as part of a sculptural art installation & performance project by sculpture artist (and Watkins' girlfriend) Norma Fletcher. And one of their exciting projects was The Missile Project.
The got hold of a decommissioned missile from the English Ministry of Defence, loaded it on the back of a flatbed-truck and toured it through central London – right past Whitehall & Parliament. It was a statement in protest against the First Gulf War, and I think very cool!
Can you imagine people’s faces as a missile drove by?
Hope you’re having a good weekend!
