    First solo audio-only release by Melbourne-based sound and laser artist Robin Fox and first solo release since the mind-melting Backscatter DVD on Synaesthesia (2005). Taking time out from his duo with Anthony Pateras, A Handful Of Automation showcases Fox's unique and highly individual take on the usually misunderstood extreme computer music genre, and is a pleasurably disorientating ride. Alongside chaos trips such as "Boundary Layer Skin Friction" and the stunning title-track, sit beautifully-scored examples of electronic concentration such as "GODSPEED" and the closing "Melophobia (Final Edit)." This album is a must for connoisseurs of high-grade computer usage, and is released as a vinyl LP as well as a C50 cassette featuring 2 bonus cuts. Cover features images from Fox's photographic collection Proof Of Concept -- a series that has grown out of his legendary laser performances. Editions of 300 (LP) and 200 (cassette).
