J Spaceman & John Coxon from Spiritualized
12/10/2024 at Barnsdall Gallery Theatre
***Fully seated. Seating is first come, first served.***
In 2015, at the Barbican Gallery in London, J Spaceman, John Coxon, and friends performed a live soundtrack to the photographer William Eggleston’s film “Stranded in Canton”.
They’d been invited to put the soundtrack/happening together by the artist Doug Aitken as part of his Station To Station festival. He saw the parallels in Spaceman and Eggleston’s work; highs and lows; darkness and light; sin and sorrow. The simple details of life elevated into powerful reflections on the wildness of existence where the mundane becomes sublime.
The movie was first released in 1973 and shows Eggleston’s friends carousing, playing music and firing pistols into the night sky. It is raw, greasy, Quaalude-y and hot. Memphis in the 70s seems like a lot of fun if you had the stomach and access to bail money.
Shot on the first commercially available video camera, the Sony Portapak, Eggleston put a 16mm Leica lens on the front it and an infrared picture tube on the back of it to allow him to shoot in low lighting. The chaotic, wobbly filming style expertly framed by a master. “Hogarth on Beale Street” as writer Richard Williams describes it on the album’s liner notes.
"With Memphis, I grew up with and I fell in love with that whole part of the world and the music that came from there,” explains Spaceman. “Memphis is infused with this magic, then this dreadful poverty as well. There’s a strangeness to it. It’s a place where I never felt comfortable.
