A 30 minute performance will be given by Marc Garrett and Ruth Catlow in

Visitorsstudio, Furtherfield.org's real-time online, audio-visual 
collaborative mixing platform at 2am GMT.

After 30 minutes the mix will open up for everyone who is logged in to

The title for tomorrow’s performance is inspired by a silent news reel 
from 1925 called 'Fundamentalism vs Evolution' by the Topical Film 
Company, UK 1925, released last year by the BFI Creative Archive Licence 
Group. This film represents “the blaze of conflict between Science and 
the Scriptures…” surrounding the Scopes ‘Monkey’ trial in the USA; 
staging a head on collision between two trains representing each position.

Marc and Ruth have collected, edited and looped over 300 media files, 
trawled from a range of other online archives and blogs: general and 
special interest, didactic and evangelical. Tomorrow these files will be 
collided in VisitorsStudio.

Join us to watch, heckle or join the mix and preach yourself!
