Bradley’s research into these topics appears in articles and books chapters in publications such as The Wire Magazine, Ibraaz, The Oxford Handbook of Sound Art. Bradley conveys the research, while also conducting it, as performance, spoken word or music radio broadcast and sculpture or installations.
The artworks tend to be treated found objects, textile and its machinery, electronics, means of communicating, even without sound, silent works about sound. Bradley’s core methodologies revolve around experimentalism, deep listening and exercises in modes of communication and reception, mainly via experimental performance, discussion and signage. Bradley’s live performances stage inter-plays between dimensions for example the body, architecture, space (geography and scale), and history (time), repositioning the listener, questioning our sense of self and our place within both society and nature.
