History

1978

Chris goes to Liverpool University to study architecture. During 1981 ‑1982 he spends a year gaining practical experience in a London architectural practice, designing a staircase in an industrial development in Milton Keynes. “It’s not a remarkable staircase”, he comments when visiting it in 1988, “It’s just a functional staircase”.

They take a break from work in L.A. on their next studio album (eventually titled Elysium) to drive down South La Cienega Boulevard to visit the local art galleries. At one of them they see, for the second time, a show by artist Brian Bress, whose work has sufficiently impressed them that they will later ask him to create the video for ‘Invisible.’
