RE:PRESS

Set within a dystopian Nottingham in 2086, this project imagines a future where music culture has collapsed and vinyl records have been banned by authorities seeking to control emotion, identity and collective expression. In a society stripped of creativity and human connection, music is no longer experienced publicly, and social gatherings through sound have disappeared entire As a response, underground rituals emerge within abandoned industrial spaces where forgotten vinyl records are treated as sacred artefacts. Through pilgrimage, pressing, offering and listening, small communities preserve memory and rebellion through sound.
