yeah I’m not sure I agree with this idea that the music suffers bc the technology wasn’t quite there. it’s possible that within the greater arch of the development of their current (post exai) system

This is gonna sound weird... but I always thought the cover to confield looked like bad quality photos of a fancy office building... like they were taken with a cheap webcam.

 

The left image on the front cover, the left surface looks a bit like wood grain, so I immediately got a sense of polished wooden walls, with these shiney metal panels that decorate the walls.

 

The image on the right therefore gave me the impression of stairs... but all fragmented.

 

I kind of like the way I see it more than the reality, cos that video looks a little dated now. But I still think it's really cool that that's how they got the art work.

 

I wish that musicians put together extensive documentaries on every aspect of the album's creation. I always wanted "special features" like DVD's have. Commentary for an album (I guess it'd have to work like Pop Up Video) would be great! And behind the scenes footage and stuff about the artwork and stuff... I know most musicians don't put in enough effort to warrant that kind of depth but imagine Autechre doing something like that, it'd be fantastic.

that would be amazing but of all bands i think autechre are the least likely to do something like that!

HOLY SHIT

 

THAT LOOKS AWESOME

 

WHAT VIDEO IS THIS FROM?

 

 

What? You don't know? Back when Confield was released there was a micro site on WARP which basically was a Java applet which animated the Confield artwork. You really then understood what the album cover was, in relation with space and time.

 

 

Oh wait you were like 4 years old back then LOL :pedobear::emotawesomepm9:
