  1. it would be great if someone who visits this show reviewed it for those of us who aren't able to see this.
    what does Exh. mean? exhibit?
    what does sound have to do with these fabrics? do they make sound as they move ala Nick Cage Soundsuits?
    sounds intriguing...

  2. "Exh" means exhibition (informal shorthand for the sake of layout and re-posting in FB). Any readers near Nottingham Trent Univ? YES, PLEASE TO TAKE PHOTOS AND GIVE US YOUR FEEDBACK!
