Blinking Glue is the second solo record from Chicago-based percussionist Bill Harris. Building off of ideas and material from his 2021 solo recording, ONOMAT, Blinking Glue is a single-take, 25-minute live performance that explores live feedback manipulation, rhythmic concepts, and prepared drums and percussion. Inspired by the works of Frank Rosaly, Chris Corsano, Camille Emaille, Gerry Hemingway, and Deantoni Parks.
Solo work for drumset, percussion, feedback, prepared floor tom by Bill Harris.
Recorded at the Music Garage, Chicago, on December 27, 2021.
Recording, mixing, mastering, artwork by Bill Harris.
Cover and back illustration is from the 1998 IAEA report inis-ua--062,
“Room 305/2 Block 4 of the Chernobyl NPP: Its Condition, Assessment of the Amount of Fuel.”
The room is a jumble of building structural elements, reactor parts, and fuel containing material in various forms, including “lava” flows.
Album and track titles taken from words by Cedric Bixler-Zavala.
