Introduction: The Analogues of Peter Strickland Alexandra Heller-Nicholas and John Edmond July 2019 The Analogues of Peter Strickland One way of thinking about Peter Strickland’s works is as baubles of obsession. They are little spheres of influence, spheres of logic that marry fecund dialogue and audiovisual atmosphere with field recordings ...
Chickens Come Home to Roost: Hallucinations of a Hobbyist in Peter Strickland’s Berberian Sound Studio David Toop July 2019 The Analogues of Peter Strickland Like the hole at the centre of a tape spool, Gilderoy occupies the absent fulcrum of an auditory mystery, a mystery made more mysterious by its transparency, its bathos.

It is home to brigands and monsters, and yet also offers refuge. The forest becomes a physical manifestati...
Gender Divide in Diptych: Peter Strickland’s Berberian Sound Studio and The Duke of Burgundy Anton Bitel July 2019 The Analogues of Peter Strickland The Berberian Sound Studio – a labyrinthine post-production complex in 1970s Italy to which all the events of Berberian Sound Studio are restricted – is a male world, and Peter Strickland's film traces the conf...
It’s a Cobbler’s Lot: Peter Strickland’s Penchant for Synaesthetic, Švankmajerian Surrealism and Fetishism Cerise Howard July 2019 The Analogues of Peter Strickland "One sensation of mind, one fabric in recollection of touch." - Saleswoman Miss Luckmoore (Fatma Mohamed), waxing typically gnomic, in In Fabric (Peter Strickland, 2018).

Hard Line Listening: Sound and Audition Within the Films of Peter Strickland Lawrence English July 2019 The Analogues of Peter Strickland The cinema screen, by its very construction, is a treacherous environment for sound.
