===================================================

"Iörmungandur" was conceived in the week of October 1st - 5th, 1984, as a rhythmic ritual of no fixed, though preferably extremely long, duration.

This 56 minutes version was originally released on audio cassette (cut into two parts to fit the two sides of a C60 tape), as No. 4 in The Confrontation Project series, curated by Julie Smit and Ben Hollander in collaboration with the Staalplaat label, documenting a program on the Amsterdam pirate FM-radio station « radio GOT », broadcasting on 95.5 MHz.
It was recorded on October 5th, 1984, in our rehearsal studio in a squatted warehouse on the Amsterdam Levantkade.

The limited edition cassette release had a C60 cassette tape in a plastic jewel case with hand-colored cover, packed in a hand-colored cardboard box with a 12 page A5 sized hand-colored booklet.
The booklet contained a short story (in Dutch) written by Ronald Heiloo.

Tim Benjamin did the art-work.

The digital dowload comes with a pdf copy of the original booklet.
