the audio and video and do "video scratching."

EBN are always looking for ways to experiment with their techniques of audio/video manipulations. Late last year, they did a special Providence show at Lupos where for the first 2 hours the club was open they confused people with a two hour ambient set.

"It put a lot of people to sleep and drove others from the room," explains Pearson. "But it was an interesting test in multi-playback of a purely ambient loop experience, with no beats."

The group has been exploring the ambient noises found during the silent moments of their video footage. By looping and otherwise manipulating the subtle audio from these moments, Pearson says they are able to "expose the boundaries between randomness and order, chaos and order."

Having done videos for U2's "Zoo TV" tour, EBN are eager to collaborate with others, though they don't have anything lined up for the immediate future. They had been working on a Nike commercial, but that project fell through.
