The 3 Signs Of The Dreams

Death Pact International is a collaborative project involving many activists from various backgrounds. It is a unit working in the dark underground of electro / atmospheric / harsh / industrial / noise. It is a unit which plans from time to time, to leave this self imposed isolation and strike at an unsuspecting "world outside".
Death Pact International is an assault group that seeks nothing less than global recognition. Its aural and visual presentations are aimed at effecting and infecting the minds of millions. Here at the dawn of the 21st century, Death Pact International sees itself as an art guerrilla movement that is moving across the landscape of a dead and dying world. Death Pact International will bury the stinking corpse of the corporate / elitist / ego art and give birth to a new creative monster that encourages collaboration. The combined efforts of many units under the banner of Death Pact International will unite us and therefore make us a much stronger and therefore more effective unit.
Death Pact International invites individuals / groups / units to become involved.
That you have never before been in a group or unit involved with the aural or visual creative process is no barrier to becoming part of death pact international.
If you agree with the following points and want to be a part of Death Pact International , welcome!
Death Pact International does not believe in censorship. Many subjects will be touched upon or investigated and be made available as information or as confrontation by some of those working as death pact international. This subject matter could include material of an extreme sexual or political nature or could include material offensive to those with religious leanings.
No subject must be seen as taboo.

MULTIPLE NAME
Death Pact International is a name that can be used by any person or persons who wish to use it.
Death Pact International will often deal with the dark side of human nature and the associated murderous vibes will be offensive and sickening to a lot of people. Therefore please note that by choosing to use the name Death Pact International you are tarring yourself with the same brush as other individuals / groups / units who operate under the banner of Death Pact International and who may not hold the same viewpoints as yourself.
When releasing recordings or publications under the name Death Pact International always make known somewhere on each release the words "no copyright" (for recordings) or "no copyright - reprint at will" for publications. This will help in the dissemination and distribution of Death Pact International works.
Death Pact International releases should be anonymous but if ego wins you over, can include the information "Death Pact International on this occasion were :___________"


STRATEGY OF ACTION
Work alone or collaborate with someone else on recordings and release them in cassette form (one of the easiest ways to reproduce in your own home) or as singles/eps/lps/cd-rs or cds. Work on publications such as kommuniques / magazines / booklets / e-mails/ web sites / pranks / etc and let loose your words/your artwork out into the world. No one even need to know it is your own work if you don't want them to know. When asked you can say you are distributing it for the art guerrilla movement - Death Pact International.
Let there be scores of units operating under the name Death Pact International.
Get together with others operating within Death Pact International and organise art/mail art exhibitions - boycott those borguoise elitist galleries and use open spaces / abandoned buildings / public toilets / any place who will have you etc etc.
Organize on line forums, chats, performances; the web at the moment is the easier way to get the wider audience with less effort.
Let your imagination go.

D.P.I. - Always Remember Authority Is Counter-Revolution

impro Hang drum 08/22

fortunately there is little routine in my life
I thought about it, then I actually only think about vacuuming
Phase 1: Find the device and pull it out of the corner
Phase 2: Unroll the power cable from the device
Phase 3: Plug the power cord into the outlet
Stage 4: vacuuming
Phase 5: Switch off and roll up the cable

Recorded with SAMPLR into TE TX-6
That's where the little tones come from

Keep It Clean(disquiet0558)

For this Disquiet Junto prompt, I chose a fully automated chore, the washing machine. I find the sound of the washing machine comforting. The phases of its cycle are an endless mystery to me, so I recorded a series of different sounds from the pattern on a Sony dictaphone. Then I layered these parts of each cycle on Audacity and built a piece around different pitches and rhythms, and adding reverb. There's a bubble wrap solo at 7 minutes in just for the hell of it.

Form and Burden

[disquiet0558] Form and Burden

"Composite things are like dreams. Fantasies. Bubbles. Thoughts. Like a dewdrop and a flash of lightning; A new dress and a burning tire; Grains of sand and sinking ships; The shadow of a statue and an entry in a diary; A brain tumor and an ice cream sundae. They are thus to be regarded."
