Since then, Impromptu has continued to inspire us and has gone onto directly inform other work we have made (namely DRUMROLL 🥁 in 2020) - https://t.co/gdQxHLevZa

🎬 Next up in our ‘artist talks’ film series is a short film about our artwork ‘Impromptu’, made in 2015 with renowned Freddie Mercury tribute artist Gary Mullen (winner of stars in their eyes!) @RealGaryMullen - watch online at https://t.co/B1FjCOuoZp

[LOW PROFILE @helloLOWPROFILE]

8 years later, Impromptu still remains one of our favourite things we have made, and an artwork that we think/hope is special and moving to engage with. We hope this short film helps to capture some of the thinking behind the work and point towards what it’s like to experience...

In 2020 we made DRUMROLL, an audio artwork made in collaboration with Richard Sharp, originally distributed on #NYE 2020 to create a shared (but distant) listening event.

It's on our website as a FREE permanent work!🥁
