Video samples from a seven minute performance of Michael Ashcroft recorded in 1995 in Cardiff have served as a source of inspiration for many years.

The initial project was WE WANT GOD NOW, a one hour long tape for the British performance group Man Act (of which Michael Ashcroft was a member). The WE WANT GOD NOW tape, edited in 1995 had a rather short life.

The raw video material however has been used later on in many forms and clones like in AREAL. In one such phase of resynthesizing it became FORM.

FORM was originally commissioned as a contribution to Robert Lepage theatre show ZULU TIME and later on became reedited again and, in its final edition, had its last public appearance at the PS1 Clock tower in New York.
