Crank Sturgeon:
Fell down stairs in 1992 and has never quite felt the same way since. Sturgeon makes noise and collaged headgear in lieu of a reality informed by four sides. Crank goes to great lengths to produce his audio-visual catastrophes which he likens to a cause that evades description and goes by the name HUSO.
