Constructed by builder's labourers of the avant garde for their guests.
Mitchell Jones, Patrick Gibson and Michael Prowse 1982
Welcome to the Institute of Prat Culture, built as a sort of reference point for information about Scattered Order, a noise making band from Sydney, Australia, who began their post punk assault on listeners in 1979. Delve into the musical footnotes, relive the heady days of youth before tinnitus set in, or just laugh at the pictures...
A lugholes epic
The whole nail-biting saga is recounted in HISTORY
Noodlers and twiddlers

Wordy pictures
Not the prettiest band, so there's handbills as well, in the SCRAPBOOK
News
The Institute has been fully reconditioned
We didn't throw it out, we recycled it and added lots of new bits. Everything's updated, from the expanded History section to the fully illustrated discography. Many previously unpublished photographs have been added, and we're now gathering new soundfiles, like some kind of attractive moss. [October 2008]
