| Alan Lamb |
Primal Image
|
Primal Image | Dorobo | For these recordings, Lamb used contact microphones on miles and miles of telephone wires, capturing the sounds of birds landing upon them or swaying in the wind. | 1981-1988 | |||
| Ellen Fullman |
Receeding Parade / Train Whistle Alternate
|
Change of Direction | New Albion | 10" | On Ellen's "Long String Instrument" which she's been working with since 1981. Performers use rosin on their hands to make the strings vibrate. | 1998 | ||

Projection 6'30"
|
ECHO. The Images of Sound II | Het Apollohuis | This string installation consisted of 18 paint cans upside down on the floor in three rows each. Strings attached the cans to the ceilings, which are"played" by small motors. Also chek out the album "Partitas for Long Strings" on XI records. | 1987 | |||
| Alastair Galbraith / Matt De Gennaro |
Antares
|
Long Wires in Dark Museums (vol. 1 north island) | Emperor Jones | For these pieces, AG + MDG set-up the long wires in galleries, but only perform on them in the dark. AG believes that with the lights out the audience is " silent, thralled by darkness, less aware of the passage of time."

light readings [7]
|
Bright and Dusty Things | New Albion | These sounds are translations of light; SV took light readings with a photocell device and processed vibrations of color and speed into tones with pitch and duration. On some pieces he collaborates with musicians Dave Tronzo and Pauline Oliveros. | 2001 | |||
| Text of LIght |
[untitled]
|
052402 Echo 4 | Table of the Elements | Group members (Alan Licht, Lee Ranaldo, William Hooker, Chrisitan Marclay, Ulrich Krieger. Tim Barnes and DJ Olive) improvise/interpret their work through the lens of Stan Brakhage's films, specifically Text of Light from 1974. | 2004 | |||

Man-Mo
|
Logos Works | XI | Man-Mo is a temple in Hong Kong, and the music represents the spiraling-up of streams of smoke from incense. Im my mind, however, I can only think of decay -- the way the bell tones (especially) diminish so quickly. | 1995 | |||
| Harry Bertoia |
#1025 Unfolding
|
Unfolding | PSF | Bertoi's sounds come from hand-made sculpture/instruments, where again the ideas of space, length and decay come into play. | 1993 | |||

| Morton Feldman |
for john cage
|
for john cage | HatArt | for violin (Josje Ter Haar) and piano (John Snijders). I chose this piece for Morty's unique use of space and time in his compositions, but also for its homage to Cage, whose piece "Organ 2/ASLAP" is playing for the next 639 years in Germany.
