Boxset
Picture of the set, as it was released: two fibreboard sheets with vinyl sleeves and CD/DVD housing, bolt together with wing nuts.
Most of the included material has not been released earlier on a physical format. Additionally, the set contains a registration information for further downloadable material "we couldn't fit in the box": ambient tracks, all material from the vinyl EPs, the score for the 2006 comedy-dramahorror filmTaxidermia, as well as the collection of ISAM remixes by Frank Riggio.[5]
Parallel to the release of the Boxset, in May 2012, Tobin performed tracks from ISAM and classic material in the audiovisual ISAM: Live show at the O2 Brixton Academy in London, and at the FutureEverything Festival in Manchester, after sold out shows at the Roundhouse and London Forum, which featured visual backdrops by V Squared Labs.[6]
