Title : Found Poem

Artist : Stuart McAdam

Blurb : Stuart is a past contributor of the zine, he currently resides in Glasgow.

When you see a word, you see through to the objects or ideas with which it is associated.

Stuart is interested in talking around his activities as an artist as activity itself, as well as sound/image relationships and their transparencies. He is interested in how this is related to art language.

There are still another five tracks to come, other artists involved are Ultra-Red, Ben Robinson, I Like Yellow Things, Dawn Campbell and The Box.  Remember all seven tracks will be available to download at the weekend for free!

The vinyl is up, the computer is in place, all that is left is for you to TURN YOUR BLUETOOTH ON.

Kill Your Timid Notion starts today with two very special performances by Jarrad Fowler and Chistof Migone at four.  Plus a fantastic film by seminal video artist John Smith at seven.

We thought we would kick off our mixtape with a pop drenched glitch concoction from Edward Shallow.

Edward is a good friend of Yuck ‘n Yum, and a fellow Dundee resident.  You can often see him wandering the perth road in his orange hoody playing his Game Boy, trouble is, he thinks he lives in a computer game and we don’t have the heart to tell him otherwise.

Track one : Cranes not Skyhooks

Artist : Edward Shallow

Shallow, influenced by video-games of yesteryear and the sceptical of the views of zealots, has crafted a world in which to reside. Red Plastic Park is this world. He finds the psychology of the game more interesting than the game itself and has created this staggered piece with a Nintendo Game Boy.

Other artists involved are Stuart McAdam, Ultra- Red, Ben Robinson, I Like Yellow Things, Dawn Campbell and The Box

Remember you will be able to download the whole album for free on our website the weekend of the festival.

Hey Yucks and Yums,

A special edition zine has been made to mark the close of the Getting Up exhibition in Inverness.  The zine features work from all artists involved in the project.  It was distributed in Inverness on Monday when Gayle donned her YYADA outfit and distributed the little gem to the good folks of Inverness.  You can download an electronic copy of the zine by clicking on the link below.  Thanks to IOTA for comissioning us, HMC for printing the zine and of course all the lovely artists who contributed to our project in Inverness.

We have more exciting projects coming up, so watch this space for details!
