midierror meets... is BACK! With Stuart Warren Hill aka Hexstatic, with Sonicstate !
The 'midierror meets...' interview series is back for Series 2 with Sonicstate, speaking to all kinds of people working in music and sound.
Head over to Sonicstate to listen! https://sonicstate.com/news/2025/02/10/podcast-midierror-meets-hexstatic/
For this first episode we hear from Stuart Warren-Hill, the designer of the Hologauze - a thin veil which is projected onto for incredible pseudo-3D and parallax-type effects as used by Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Eric Prydz, DJ Shadow, Max Cooper and more. He's also the man behind Hexstatic, known for his award winning audio/visual work, creating the world first visual album, and making 'Timber' - an era-defining music video highlighting the destruction caused by deforestation - and quite possibly the most remixed video of all time. He also has a lovely synth collection, including an ARP Quadra, Solina String Synth, and Thomas Dolby signed TB-303.

Fiona Brice has a wealth of experience across a spectrum of musical adventures - from touring for 10 years with Placebo to creating arrangements for and performing with the likes of John Grant, Anna Calvi, Jay-Z, Kayne West, Liam Gallagher, Kelly Jones, and many many more.
She released her solo album 'Postcards From...' in 2016 on Bella Union, and there will be a follow up next year once the vinyl is ready to ship.
