Formed in Sheffield, England 1977.The name ClockDVA partially devised from the Nadsat Language contained in the glossary of the novel A CLOCKWORK ORANGE by Anthony Burgess. DVA means "2" in Russian, the further numerological and cabalistic references can be found within the sleeve notes contained on the Buried Dreams Album. A fuller in depth analysis will be published in the ClockDVA archive CD. The Clock element was adopted as a symbol of Surrealism and the mechanics of Time.Discography:Thirst LP/CD (Doublevision 1981)

Kinetic Engineering is a collection of visual ideograms developed by ClockDVA personnel R.E. baker and A. Newton during work on the albums Buried Dreams and Man-Amplified . These videos were constructed and engineered using computer technologies at the Anterior Research Station 1988-1993. This is the first time that ClockDVA have made available its video output and this collection represents the first complete catalogue. To try to describe in any detail these visualizations would be a restriction of their form. This is the first reel for the Inner Cinema, a kinetically engineered dream transformed through the technology of spirit. New codes for the pattern of sight and sound, open your eyes and open your mind, these are audible paintings.Clock DVA 1993
