[Conference or Workshop Item]
In conversation with Kobena Mercer in 2016, John Akomfrah and Trevor Mathison of Black Audio Film Collective characterised the Collective’s 1982 slide tape work Expeditions: Signs of Empire and Images of Nationality in terms of ‘a sonic back- drop which one could only call “black industrial’. To pursue the notion of a black industrial aesthetic is to rethink the constitution of black audio from within the Collective’s recursive formulation of the becoming of black audio film collectivity.
