The Evelyn Tables, by Aidan Baker

The Evelyn Tables

by Aidan Baker

supported by

Dave Aftandilian Mysterious and otherworldly, these ambient guitar compositions remind me of a microcosm: a model of the universe in miniature. In the paths of our nerves and blood vessels, our bodies mirror the organization of leaf-veins, rivers, perhaps even the unseen paths between the stars. As I listen I can almost see the spark-impulses traveling along the axons…. Requires close listening, and rewards it richly.

about

The Evelyn tables, the oldest known anatomical preparations in Europe, dating to 1646, are an early yet humbling insight into the networks within the human body, a network within natural networks that govern the physical constraints of the human material existence. Observing them from the outside, they are uncannily reminiscent of a floral network, yet at the same time strangely familliar.

The soundscapes of this work attempt to convey these ideas viscerally, through a human body manifesting them. A meditation on the shared realm of existence.

The Evelyn tables are the oldest known anatomical preparations in Europe. Each one of the Evelyn tables is approximately 1.9 m in height, and 77 cm wide. Each one provides an insight into human physiology. Indeed, they display four different parts of the human body – including arteries, nerves, veins – all meticulously dissected from a human specimen, then affixed to a pine wooden board, and preserved from the passing centuries.

From the artist:

"These are four long tracks of textural ambient drone/noise, all produced by electric and acoustic guitars, and inspired by the anatomical preparations, The Evelyn Tables - four of the oldest known human anatomical preparations kept in the Royal College of Surgeons in London"
