About Reactor

Reactor is sometimes Rector, aRector or even Ivan’s Dogs with an accént.

To be really reductive and slightly clumsy here, we ring up our mates and say let's get together on Saturday night and have some ‘fun’. No one has any fun, and the next day we get together with another bunch of mates and have some ‘right fun’ about the fact no one had any fun.

Last night I met Max Gold - new text by David Burrows looking back on two exhibitions Here, the Gold Ones flatter (2022) and Here, the Gold Ones meet (2021) over on the Bonington Gallery blog alongside a single screen edit of the flatter film.
