Will Schrimshaw's Ur-Writings seek to trace "the auto-affective inscriptions of the earth upon itself".  Like a needle to a groove of vinyl, Schrimshaw is working on "a systematic means of listening to the earth surface and subterranean ruptures by way of tracing its various inscriptions."  The Museum of Acoustic Geology is pleased to re-broadcast these tracings collected in Schrimshaw's research studio based in Newcastle upon Tyne.

Denmark branch opening soon

Rock Radio by Guus Oosterbaan

The Museum of Acoustic Geology is pleased to announce a new branch opening soon in Copenhagen, Denmark.  Our Danish curator is pleased with the collection largely based on works of concrete.  MoAG Denmark will also be organizing bunker tours in collaboration with Atlantikwal-Denmark.   This continental network of bunkers is so far the most enduring example of concrete sound sculpture.

Forthcoming exhibition
