And a Heavy Blue Silence Fell Klunk

Eight transducers mounted on an elevator shaft.

Intervention at The Anarchy of Silence – John Cage and Experimental Art. Eight transducers were placed on the glass panels of the elevator shaft. The sounds were based on Solo for Voice 22 and Solo for Voice 79 by John Cage.

Schunck, Heerlen, the Netherlands

(November 2010)

I presented this sonic intervention for the exhibition The Anarchy of Silence – John Cage and Experimental Art  at the Schunck art centre in Heerlen. Eight transducers were placed on the glass panels of the elevator shaft. Breathing and throat sounds – taken from Solo for Voice 22 and Solo for Voice 79 by John Cage – filled the staircase of the art centre.
