"Dr X is a spoken word / video / electronic music performance evoking the feel of an illustrated surreal science lecture. The piece takes as its starting point, a fragment of the lost 1930s horror film, Dr X, and expands it into an essay on the dawn of the age of electricity in 1930's New York. Ken Hollings, Graham Massey and Howard Walmsley, the three members of BTAL (Biting Tongues Arts Lab) have collaborated together since 1979. Ken Hollings is a writer and broadcaster, Howard Walmsley is a film director/producer/musician, Graham Massey is an international recording artist remixer and producer credits include his own bands 808state, Toolshed and Homelife along side collaborations as diverse as Bjork to Robbie Williams, Brian Eno to Quincy Jones." |

Showcase Screening of new video production by director Howard Walmsley, with supporting live performance including a sound-text piece by Graham Massey and Ken Hollings and a psychogeographic experiment by broadcaster and MAP founder Bob Dickenson This will be the first public screening of this stylised docu-drama which offers a satirical look at the regeneration of Manchester. The film charts a fractured narrative - as the quakes continue, the lives of the characters become less stable. The cast includes Manchester comedy scene regulars Jonathan Mayor, Noel Kelly, Patrick Gallagher and Roland Gent. 808 State frontman Graham Massey provides the specially commissioned soundtrack. Members of Toolshed/Homelife/Biting Tongues will be involved as Ego In Exotica Sum,reconstructing the Martin Denny Group of the late 50s
