Focussing on the work of FC Judd (1914-1992), this experimental documentary from Brighton based artist Ian Helliwell, explores Judd’s activity during the 1950s and 60s with electronics and musique concrete. Although high profile at that time, with regular appearances on BBC radio, and the soundtrack for ITV’s sci-fi puppet series Space Patrol, his story has since slipped into obscurity.
Publishing 11 books and running a small record label during the 1960s, he was a prime mover in disseminating experimental sound to the general public, through lectures across the British Isles, and as editor of Amateur Tape Recording magazine. His invention of Chromasonics, a system for colour visualisation of electronic music, can now be seen for the first time since the early 60s.
