This is the first volume of the Kilkenny Electroacoustic Research Laboratory Anthology, which is a music compilation anthology attempting to preserve the fictional history of a small composer community based in rural Ireland which existed from the mid 60’s until the late 80’s. The project is written by the Irish composer and artist Neil Quigley.
This first volume in the series, initially released in 2022, is now being re-released as a compact disc with a 50-page booklet which documents the history of the lab and for the first time, the full score to Packie Bolger's "Piece for Recorder Quartet and Two Synchronised Delay Lines" written for the opening of the 1989 Teletext Conference in Kilkenny. This edition also comes with a pull-out A3 poster of a Kilkenny Tribune front page on one side and Kenny Phelan's Psychogeographic map/score for his piece the Nore on the other.
Volume 1 of the anthology was influenced by equal parts idleness and fear during lockdown - also Flann O’Brien, water divining, BEST store facades made by SITE in the 80’s and 90’s, Morton Feldman, and the 1972 Douglas Trumbull film Silent Running.
