The suite of works is informed by Beck's research into Environments, a series of 11 vinyl records from the 1970s that registered the acoustics of nature and meditative sounds with high-fidelity recording technology. Beck's interest in these records lies in their pioneering role as tools for self-optimisation within an ever more competitive capitalist setting. Dissecting the series' promotional material, Beck highlights and cuts into the claims made for creating spaces of heightened productivity in which one supposedly feels at ease and is ever more functional.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9781941366813.
