Felix Thorn is a sodding genius. I’ll say that again later, so we’re all clear. Why is he a sodding genius? Here’s why: because, operating as Felix’s Machines, he single-handedly makes crazy gizmos, gadgets and sculptures that specifically play the music he pre-programmes into them – and light up and look amazing while so doing. It’s part-music, part-art installation, and totally spellbinding. The music is surprisingly (sorry Felix, I did doubt you, foolishly forgetting my opening line here) excellent, too: twitchy, compelling, soundtrack-style stuff that’ll get you through any homework, train ride or ketamin comedown. Actually, maybe scrap that last one – could end badly. Anyway, time to recap: Felix Thorn is a sodding genius. Agree? Good.
