(2013)
Standard CD in jewell case with printed insert. According to Sinclair: the CD "(a)ccompanied the exhibition of the same name at the Duchy Gallery in Glasgow and was given away at a live performance event at The Poetry Club in Glasgow, during the run of the show. This developed the role of the musical contribution in the Real Life project by creating an identity for the musical output: ‘Ross & the Realifers’ (which is nevertheless mainly all just me anyway).However I wanted to suggest the possibility that this was a wider dynamic collaborative process at play and that perhaps the audience themselves could become ‘The Realifers’. This exhibition was specifically conceived alongside the music to propose a visual interpretation of each song and as with The Real Life Rock Opera the cd was playing in the show.
