Examining the tensions between scientific and spiritual beliefs about the 'birth' of matter and our relationship with the earth, O-B-A-F-G is an experimental audio-theatre piece by Ronald Duncan from 1964. As our perceptions of matter and space have changed quite drastically since the early 60s due to the pace of technological developments, this re-imagining of O-B-A-F-G – a collaboration between digital performance company Blind Ditch, arts event NOSE, the Culture and Review Programme and Phonic FM – explores the possibilities offered by current digital technologies to expand...

Michael Terry says, “People are often reluctant...
