Collaboration is at the core of what we do. For this project we brought together friends, old and new, into an analogue space to synthesise and experiment, with results that surprised us all. By re-connecting with old friend Dylan Kendle, famed for his partnership at design practise Tomato (working with Underworld, Trainspotting, Working Title Films… to name just a few), we have the perfect mix to translate and rediscover ‘McFaul_Day’ – the creative agency – as we approach an exciting phase of transition later in 2020. This work would mark a rebirth of why we as a team exist, and are always searching for a sense of self and poise. 

Dylan lured us with Ben Atwin’s ethereal track ‘Substrates’, the perfect score on which to inspire movement, shape and vivid colour. With Ben's music as a platform, we set-up systems, looping (things) in, cutting (things) out – as Ben does when creating his music – whilst allowing the choreography of Charlotte Edmonds (Inaugural Royal Ballet Young Choreographer 2015–2018) to flow freely and seamlessly with light and sound guiding the remarkable dancers Emma and James. 

We had no idea what would come from this journey but we are amazed to see the whole team’s efforts in producing something so perfect in its translation of who we are and so true to our vision. It only felt right, as we brought the concept and team together, that we were making something special happen where once there was nothing – a perfect metaphor for our existence and a bourgeoning statement of where we are going.
