Left-handed blows is the first published collation of the theoretical writing of this outstanding sound artist.
Bruce Russell (b. 1960, New Zealand) works in sound under his own name and as a member of The Dead C. (1987- present). A past member of A Handful of Dust, Russell is also known for curating the internationally noted record labels XPRESSWAY and Corpus Hermeticum.
This book consists of essays written over the last 16 years, reflecting on sound and its role in culture. It compiles online essays, liner notes, catalogue contributions and most of the previously published contents of Logopandocy: the journal of vain erudition.
This publication was funded by Creative New Zealand and was supported by the Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology.
