JG Thirlwell has been working on a series of wall sculptures, having just completed series one, which consists of seven pieces. The pieces are wood and acrylic paint assemblages, and were realized at his Self Immolation Studios work headquarters in Brooklyn in 2024. The works are various dimensions, from 27″ x 16″ to 36″ x 24″, and all feature his signature color palette of red, white and black, with two shades of gray. Thirlwell plans to continue on to create series two and three, and then exhibit the works in New York City in the near future.

Omniverse, the second album from JG Thirlwell‘s synthesizer-based project Xordox is now available. Omniverse has been years in the making, and was recorded primarily at Self Immolation Studios in Brooklyn and mixed with Al Carlson at Gary’s Electric. Thirlwell used both hardware and software synths, as well as Buchla and Serge modular synth recordings he created while in residence at EMS in Stockholm. The album was released by Editions Mego. The initial blue vinyl run on the LP is now sold out but it is available on black vinyl (with free download), CD and download. The vinyl contains a shorter version of the track ‘Oil Slick’, edited for the time constraints of the medium. The track is in its full 13 minute glory on the CD and download.
