Coming soon on Taping Policies is a live DVD documenting the Drift performance by Lee Ranaldo and Leah Singer at Kunstencentrum Belgie on November 26th 2006 in Hasselt, Belgium.
Here's how Plexifilm, who did the official Drift release in 2005, describes it: "DRIFT is a collaboration started in 1991 between visual artist Leah Singer and musician and poet Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth. DRIFT is an immersive sonic/visual environment consisting of music, sounds and texts by Ranaldo in response to two 16mm analytical film projectors performed in real time by Singer. Much as a DJ scratches a vinyl record, Singer manipulates her films in a live improvisation with Ranaldo's guitar, poetry and soundscapes."
'DRIFT Hasselt' is a document constructed with 4 camera's which has it's focus on the performance side of Drift. It was originally assembled in 2008 to be part of the Sonic Youth exhibition 'Sensational Fix'.
Finally culled from that archive, it will be available soon as a limited DVD.
