The second commandment: ‘Though shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath … Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands that love me, and keep my commandments.’ Exodus twenty, four through six. The second commandment. The second commandment. ‘Graven’. ‘Image’. ‘Thou shalt not make unto thee’. ‘Any’.

Conceived and mastered at School of Art, Aberystwyth University, 2010–16
Released by the National Screen & Sound Archive of Wales
The project and recording are a collaboration between The National Screen & Sound Archive of Wales, The National Library of Wales, Aberystwyth, and the School of Art, Aberystwyth University.
The Aural Bible series represents an explorative engagement with sonic material associated with the Judaeo-Christian and the acoustic culture of Protestant Christianity in particular. This is to the end of developing not only creative outputs but also a practice-based hermeneutic. The latter seeks to offer interpretations and discern significances that are otherwise not immediately evident either at source or using other modes of academic inquiry.
