GENESIS P-ORRIDGE was born in Manchester, England in 1950. He was a member of the Kinetic action group Exploding Galaxy/Transmedia Exploration in 1969-70. He conceived and founded the seminal British "performance art" group Coum Transmissions in August 1969. He became a member of Throbbing Gristle in 1975, of Psychic TV in 1981, and of spoken word/ambient theatre group Thee Majesty in 1999. He invented the term/genre “Industrial Music” (with Monte Cazazza) on September 3rd, 1975. He has released more than 200 CDs of experiments in music to date. He has worked and collaborated with William S. Burroughs; Brion Gysin (inventor of "Cut-Ups"); filmaker Derek Jarman; Dr. Timothy Leary among others.

As an early pioneer of Rave Movement in UK and USA, he has published thousands of articles, texts, interviews covering the functional and metaphysical implications and strategies of popular culture. He has also explored human behaviour, ritual, and personality modification through the splintering of expectations in private situations to create collaged “Sigils.” He currently lives in New York as a musician, author, cultural engineer/commentator and fine artist. The most controversial of his latest live art is the 'pandrogyny' project; the annihalation of sexual gender. More info available at www.genesisp-orridge.com

PSYCHIC TV 2006

The inimitable Mancurian Genesis P-Orridge (founder of Industrial music genre) brings the majick show back to the UK with an all new (New York) Psychic TV line-up for only 3 dates. This is only the third time he has returned to his homeland since a self-imposed exile after a (now discredited) Ch4 documentary into satanic ritual allegations almost ruined his artistic career in the late 80's. A new album is due (the first since the pioneering rave album 'Trip Reset' in 1986) which feature Nick Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Gibby Haynes (Butthole Surfers). Genesis has also been busy with recent recordings and shows with the original, oft-referenced, industrial extremists Throbbing Gristle. Art fans may also be interested in his/her 'pandrogeny' project which aims to annihalate the binary gender system; Genesis and partner Lady Jaye (also in the band) have undergone huge amounts of surgery to become a 'single being'. Expect a ritualistic, loud and highly visceral night, complete stunning light show and graphic(sometimes shocking) video.
