Fact #74318
When:
Short story:
Nick Franglen, one half of the electronica duo Lemon Jelly, spends the day creating a 24-hour-long piece of music, Hymn to London Bridge, live beneath the arches of London Bridge, London, UK, Europe. Franglin uses an electronic instrument called a theremin, an expresso machine and a bank of effects pedals to create what he calls "washes of sound" which are then modified by pedestrians passing overhead who unwittingly trigger a sensor which interacts with the music. Franglin has also worked as a session musician for Primal Scream, Bjork, Pulp, and Blur.
