Suicide is an image from the 'Emotions
Electric'
series. The photograph is a large scale colour C-type print in a matt black
tray frame. The production methods behind the image draws parallels from
musical techniques pioneered by late seventies experimental industrial artists
focusing on audio manipulation, processing and compression. The densely
saturated red image is a photograph of Alan Vega, from the proto-punk band
Suicide, kneeling on stage during a performance at the Astoria in 2002.
